Ok, I don't think anyone is being immature. Even if someone is on vacation I'm willing to bet they know we're close to getting the EFB and the progress is close. This is not your typical LMS as I procrastinate with the best but I had it done day 2! Why? we'll it's important to most of us pilots to get rid of paper and the FAA is giving us an opportunity to do it sooner than they wanted it originally. It's easy for us to criticize on here how it was implemented but most of us have no clue what goes on behind the scenes, FAA, Daddy D etc. Let's get this done so we can stop doing these revisions and carrying 30 lbs of extra weight. I also don't think we should be critical of those waiting to the last minute, just should encourage them nicely!!!!

21 TDYs out of LGA on the 200 for April, but the vacancy has 30 openings to move in. Is the NYC growing over or isn't it?
I have a feeling there will be a lot of TDY opportunities for 200 FOs in JFK and LGA for the rest of 2017.

Good call. I understand the lack of LMS motivation. However, when it comes to EFB progress, I thought this pilot group would complete the required curriculum immediately! We are the select few walking in the terminal with oversized lunchboxes.

Not to rain on the parade
The deadline for the ADS-B mod is 1Jan2020. None of the 200s are compliant. Delta previously authorized $60k/200 ($42 million for 53 200s) to comply with the mod. The mod needs to get done during a heavy check teardown or it becomes even more costly. As we speak, not one aircraft has had the mod done. I am only going to get so excited about ATL and a bunch of flying biscuit 200s from XJT that pumpkin on 31Dec2019.
