Hello all,

Now we are close to the deadline:

6.4 is missing
6.4.1 looks good
6.4.2 and 3 are missing

6.5 and 6.5.2 look good
6.5.3 is a schedule variance but says "We are underspent as production 
orders have not yet been sent in. " which seems to be about a cost 
variance.  (There is a small positive cost variance, but it's below 
threshold so there should be no comments about that.)

6.6.* were already good

6.8.* Thanks for fixing, these look good now.

Thx

Gustaaf
