Well,
1) My announcment email of August 30, 2001 to the list who signed up on the
"survey on the bottom of the page" announced an October 31, 2001 deadline.
2) On October 2, 2001, I posted a message here saying we would close October
31, 2001.
3) On August 30, 2001, I posted a message here saying we would close no earlier
than October 31, 2001.
4) I've been talking about this project here since  February 25, 200.

How much time do we need?

Admittedly, any deadline is in fact arbitrary, but there comes a time when you
just gotta crack the whip and bring things in.

With the IRTC, when someone uploads an image, it's pretty much a contractual
commitment that the text uploaded with it gets burned to the CD. The upload
form gives one an opportunity to review some information before "committing."
It may prove very difficult for our code team or the editor to handle 17
requests to edit the info on 170 images. So let's be careful out there, but in
extreme cases we can be accomodating.

[Dare I say it?  Perhaps the best thing is to just upload the exact same
information "again" and correctly if you have a serious error.  NOTE TO STEVE:
would this suggestion kill me with migraines???]
