J.R., just checking to see how PITR recovery is going.  Do you need any
assistance or have any questions for us?

Also, do you have any idea how close you are to having something
completed?  Are you aware we are closing development of 7.3 at the end
of August and start beta September 1?  Is there any way we can help you?
