Here is an update on the schedule report list.
Here is a list of things expected to have been completed for 3.0 this week. This list is based on the expected completion dates from the 3.0 schedule report. Some of these things may not end up actually being completed this week and may end up being postponed to a later date.

The Behring P8-SC gun was also completed this week. So overall, 9 items were completed this week.
