Hi I have started an investigation on what holds each application (All of you that have waited for longer than about one and a half month should have recieved a personal mail. That took some time) so if anyone know anything about a specific application and what holds it, then please let me know. I have recieved replies from a couple of people now but I'm waiting for more information before I make a report to the DAM. Please use a clear subject so I know how to sort your messages. I want clear information about everything that can hold back each individual application so that can be sorted out in a nice way. Regards, // Ola PS. DAM: I hope you do not mind if I do this work for you. :) DS.
