Timetable


Here is the revised timetable for the project to the best of our current assessment. In a project as ambitious as FBY, it is impossible to guarantee a schedule. Having said this, we trust that stakeholders will agree that phenomenal progress has been made. FBY represents a unique opportunity and, as members of the Editorial Board, we would like to emphasize that we want the best possible product, not the quickest.
