Raith Status 16 March 2004:2209 hrs :: Yellow Status-- test mode pending full qualification WED AM.

[James Conway]

Greetings,

We are in the process of qualifying the system for performance and 
operations.
All sub-systems are functioning and the system has been completely 
calibrated to my satisfaction.

We are now troubleshooting several issues which we should be able to 
resolve in the morning.

Special mention goes out to the fine field service people from Raith and 
LEO, Bernd Stegemann and Mike Santomango, whom have made exemplary 
efforts to get us up and running.

Full report in the afternoon -- Wed.

Thank you for your support!

James Conway
