>From the daily output in the Projects I suspect they have cut back their staff appreciably. It makes it really more difficult to recommend to anyone to do a focused test when one dwells on the waiting time one could be handing them. The waiting times for results have been a big problem with the industry from the beginning years ago. I have never felt the waiting times have had much at all to do with actual times used to carry out the tests.

They haven't even bothered to update the estimated due date. ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
