I have organized this evaluation into 4 sections.  The first section
lists the work remaining to be done as a collection of tasks, with an
assigned person and an amount of time.  In the second section, I list
code milestones, with a summary of the related tasks.  These are
labeled as 'ipp 2.7', etc, but we may opt not to make an official
release of the software suite at these times: the additional support
load is not justified.  In the third section, I give a list of
sequential Pre-ORR data analysis milestones.  In the fourth section, I
give a schedule, primarily detailing the coding tasks, but with the
data analysis goals in [].
