[Olympus] Completing the TDR

[Inti Lehmann]

Hi again Richard,

You know that I agree with you that we should finalise this document and call it our one-and-only TDR soon. Unfortunately, there are major issues why I cannot agree to just call it final as is, namely the missing author list and Chapter 8.

To my mind we need an author list and cannot just refer to a changing webpage.

I would think that most of Chapter 8 should not be in a TDR (except the schedule). Costs are confidential, manpower is something which is rightfully assessed in a review, but one should not quote this estimates in a public document and, in particular, they don't have their place in a technical one. Furthermore all these assignments and numbers would badly need to be updated. So, I would vote for leaving them out. Else we need to agree on revised numbers, names, and assignments before this is finalised.

Sorry to say that but, to my mind, it may be difficult to finalise the document in only 10 days from now.

Cheers,
Inti
