Hi David,
    More than two thirds of the fibers on the list of suspect fibers
for this run check out okay.  It was confirmed today that there are 5
dead fibers across all cartridges and pointings (with the exception
of one fiber each on cartridge 6 and  8 which have yet to be
checked).  We will be repairing them as time allows.
				Cheers,
				  Dan
