As I understand it, short notice slips of any color do not require the 10 hours notice since you are volunteering for the flying and therefore are taking personal responsibility for being rested. Short notice IA's are legal but only as a proffer - they cannot require you to accept it. Another way to look at it is ANY assignment (except for SC) with less than 10 hours notice is a proffer only.
BTW - all of this applies to the 10 hour notice requirement only. ALL other 117 limitations still apply.
