I'm wrapping up my entry, and I'm expecting to start rendering in the next 
couple days.  That doesn't give me as much buffer as I had hoped to have. 
But with the option of adding necessary elements to my scene or not, I'll 
try cramming everything I can until the last moment.  ;-)  That still gives 
me a few days if something doesn't go as planned, though.  I'm figuring on a 
couple more nights of hard work before starting the final render(s).

So, I guess I'm just posting in order to see if anyone else wants to share 
their thoughts.  Is anyone planning to cut it real close?
