Mike,

Are you about ready to post an update so we can clear some of the discusses and 
comments that have been agreed to (like the comment added below when the 
discuss of Richard's was removed)?

It will help ADs if we are able to reduce and work on the rest.  I find sooner 
rather than later to be easier so they don't need to figure out the issues 
again to clear things that have been agreed upon.

It doesn't need to be over the weekend :-)

Thank you!
Kathleen
