Yeah! I received a short note from the university today that they're extending my PhD contract with half a year. Exactly the amount I asked for. Pfew, that went much faster than I expected. Thanks, Olga, Hennis and Frits.
The baseline is that I still hope to get a final concept out of the door at the end of december 2004, but that I now have a safety margin till 1 april 2005. A final concept at the end of december gets me a thesis defence around that same 1 april 2005, so I'm quite relieved and happy at the moment.
My name is Reinout van Rees and I program in Python, I live in the Netherlands, I cycle recumbent bikes and I have a model railway.
