Mike,
You are probably off to Japan already, but in any case our good wishes go
with you. Your two points are right on. I would be happy to do the project
leader data entry for Delivery projects (at least) when Miki has the
prototype ready. Also, (Brenda's question) will it be possible to have more
than one project leader?
Cheers, Bob
