The conflicting reports were real enough.  I remember saving off a news
report saying the audio portion was finished last September.  But don't
listen to us... what we need is someone who _does_ know for sure :-)

In any case,  I asked someone whom *I* thought would know <chuckle>, and
was told that of the three MPEG sections (video, audio, system integration),
only the video is done.  And that's the best I could find out so far.
