Dear all,

in addition to answering the questions, will is looking to our answers
right now. He and David Ch. think it might be usefull to have a small
discussion session with them at 17.00 in F324-F325 (the room we have been
in)

So David, Elton, Dan, Simon and Curtis, would you please be available.

Thanks elke

p.s. Elton, we can add that the downstream corresponds to 0.6 deg and the
one upstream to 1 deg, I'm a bit lost about your 5% aperture.
the add on could go into the caption of fig 4 or 5
