There are 3 types of elements in the comment:\n\n   * `type: user-select`  \n      give the user a choice of what language to use\n   * `type: user-select-or-other`  \n      same as `user-select` but also provides an \"Other...\" option which allows free-form entry\n   * `type: random`  \n      randomly selects one of the choices\n\n## Running tests\n\n    $ bundle exec rspec\n\n## CSV Export\n\nThe ECFS API rate limits submissions to about 500/hour. For 17-108 \"Restoring Internet Freedom\" they have set up [a form](https://www.fcc.gov/restoring-internet-freedom-comments-wc-docket-no-17-108) for bulk submissions, which may need to be used if the rate limit becomes a problem.\n\nThey also ask that organizations use this bulk upload form in any case, if they expect to submit a lot of comments.\n\nTo export the job queue to CSV in order to upload, run this command.\n\n    $ rake dear_fcc:create_csv \u003ecomments.csv\n\nMake sure to save the output because **the jobs will be deleted from the queue**. The CSV output will be at most 5 megabytes since that is the maximum file size accepted by the FCC. If there are still jobs in the queue, generate additional CSV files by running the command again.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fefforg%2Fdear_fcc","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fefforg%2Fdear_fcc","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fefforg%2Fdear_fcc/lists"}
