FYI, it appears that on my 2.8.1 system, restricting the slot to a
particular resource actually seems to make it unavailable, even for that
resource :(

The slot start date must be in the future. Once the opening time of a slot =
has been reached, new reservations are no longer allowed. =A0However, the s=
lot also has a date for when students may start reserving. =A0This must be =
in the past, for the slot to be available for selection.<div>
