Cathy, Yes, we realise that most of you are busy people and a small
extension of the deadline is certainly OK. For you and others who also
need a bit more time - I will shortly be asking you to let me know the
latest date you will be able to submit by (within reason!!) - an important
reason I need to know this is that we can't release the answers until
everyone who intends to do so has submitted the assignment.
I will be mailing the list in more detail about Assignment 1 later
today or tomorrow.
