Q 1: When will the design document be graded?
Answer: 
   Preliminary design documents are due on April 18-th
   to the mentors. Mentors will take a week to give you comments.
   However, you should start implementing right away. Let me repeat
   that again: YOU SHOULD START IMPLEMENTING RIGHT AWAY.  You can
   always make changes as you go along.  Final design document should be given to
   Louis at the time of the demo. However, we will consult the mentors
   before assigning grade for the design document (we will ascertain whether
   the final design document incorporates the feedback you received from the
   mentors).
       

Q 2: How often should the teams meet the mentors?
Answer:
   You should have weekly meetings with your mentor. I will
   recieve indirect feedback from the mentors after each weekly
   meeting. 

Q 3: When will the demos be?
Answer:
   Final demos will be on the following dates: May 10 and 11. Louis will have
   a sign-up form pretty soon. However, you should schedule a practice demo 
   with your mentor a few days before the final demo. 
   This will give you a chance to "iron out" all the kinks before the final demo. 
   Remember that the final demo and the design document are what 
   we base the project grade on.
