Jon,
Gee, Jon, I fear there has been a miscommunication here, and judging
by the e-mail that has been going back and forth, I'm not the only one
who was confused. Your message of Dec. 14th stated:
"I spoke to Charles late last week and he was concerned that no
one would submit results for the other than the default TDT
evaluations."
I think we here at Dragon all took this as indicating that you were
requesting the submissions and designating January 6th as the deadline
as a proxy for Charles. In particular, we assumed that the date
reflected his need for results on other test conditions ASAP, and of
course, everyone jumped.
Your most recent message makes it appear that the only reason for
submitting by the 6th is so that NIST can do the scoring instead of us
doing it ourselves. Is this correct? Can you clarify what the story
is here? Is there a reason we should break our necks for the January
6th deadline?
Dragon had always planned to run contrastive tests in January, even
before your Dec. 14th message. That message just gave us the
impression that the sponsors wanted to see scored results much earlier
than we had expected to submit them.
Steve
