If one applicant has waitet 185 Days for his approval, how should that
number ever get erased from the list? The 185 Days can't become
shorter therefore the number should never drop.
If people who are approved are deleted from the calculation, then that
should be called "oldest waiting" or something better. Also the
average should be over all appications within a reasonable time (one
year?) just to make the figure meaningfull.
