Is anyone actually getting through to scheduling or the duty pilot on this? I've been on hold for half an hour.

It would seem so. If you have been receiving these calls and then ignore the 10 hour required rest you are in violation of the FARs.

Seems like you're obligated to get the rest reset. It can't reset until you successfully get through to crew tracking.

What do I know…..I'm but a small cog…..

It will be interesting to see what flight ops does about this. Anybody who acknowledged one of those calls electronically and then turns a wheel in less than 10 hours from that time is subject to getting their ticket pulled by the FAA.
How is Delta going to get around that?
