    Ira,

    On 2): I have assumed that we still want to finish all four delivery specs,
    but the priority order will be determined by the answer to 1)

    On 3): As I stated before, this more a commercial decision on what peole
    plan to actually implement, but hopefully has some relationship to 1) and
    2).

    Let's try to do 1) first and see where that takes us.

    I did tell you this was going to be fun....

    Carl-Uno
