====================================================================

* I was expecting most of Sections 1 and 2, and the list of
  references, would be complete

  - using material from your project proposal

  - using material from your progress report ppt

* I was expecting many holes in the rest of the paper, depending on
  work you haven't completed yet.

  - For each hole, I was looking for a paragraph detailing what you
    plan to do to fill the hole (put the paragraph in bold or italic,
    or box it or something so I know it is "plans" and not part of the
    actual paper text).

  - I considered your *plans* in sections 3, 4 and the appendices, not
    what you've *done* in these sections.  So not having many analyses
    yet wasn't a problem, as long as you gave me a well-thought-out
    set of plans for what you will do in the last couple weeks of the
    semester.

* I also considered organization & content (and plans, if you don't
    have content for some parts yet!)
