  There are teams who intend to have a video presentation. For those teams, we need to know when the presentations are scheduled, so we can request the necessary cables for audio playback. Please send us this information ASAP, by emailing Ramona.

• Oct 18 An interactive demo of the TVSL processor is (at last!) available.
  
  
• Oct 18 Since it is desirable to perform an inspection at this time during your module development phase, Assignment 3 is posted today, and the assignment handout is combined with the tutorial notes handout. The due date remains the same, Monday, Nov 8.

• Oct 7 Spec correction
  Although TVOG is getting the data from TVDO, there was no direct control between these two modules. Version 1.2 of the specification [CSC444-2004-SRS-12] provides explicit control from TVOG to TVDO.
  Although this spec correction is intended to ease the implementors' job, given its late posting, it is not mandatory.

  We are less than one week away from opening the bank accounts (see the calendar). You should start negotiating contracts, and prepare to make payments. The cheque forms are available on the homework page.
