I expect that it's worthwhile allowing the P3D readers the opportunity
to be aware of these issues. On the other hand, Jim Norman has stated that
there is additional relevant information, which he is going to try to get
permission to post on the list. Until such an attempt has either succeeded
or failed, I do not feel it is worth the time of the P3D readership to
have to wade through an hour by hour update of "here are our judgments
based on the current information" - especially since such judgments may
have to be revised soon due to new information.

If there were a strong indication that no further information would be
forthcoming, it would be a different situation. But since we may have
more information soon, why not wait for it before posting analyses to
P3D?

I also wonder whether it might be better to hold the bulk of the
discussion on S3D, since it's really a sales issue, rather than a
3D photography and imaging issue.
