Dear partner,
     taking into consideration Laura's mail and Daniel's comments, I 
invite you
to evaluate this proposal and provide your comments promptly ...

D9.1 -> M36
D9.2 -> M36
D9.3 -> M33
D9.4 -> M33

this allow us to have more time on D9.1 for development and support on 
Catalogue,
eLearning platform and myForge and close D9.3 and D9.4 as originally 
planned.
Extending the D9.2 may help us to have the time to incorporate the 
indications from
the letter we're going to send to the commission. Here I ask Osama (as 
responsible for
this deliverable) to express his opinion.

_*I ASK YOUR COMMENTS BY TOMORROW NOON*_

I remind you that the deadline for providing comments to Juanjo is 
tomorrow,
otherwise we will send this proposal.

kind regards,
Davide
