Uh, sorry Alex. I sent my mail a minute or two before yours arrived ;).

The cart goes somewhere in the yard, A few tiles south from the
stables, I'd say. The bushes should fit just outside the wall.

Nah, shouldn't be a problem.

Sure, but all other interiour views _have_ walls.

Nope. These frames are used for the extro only, so no problem there.

Yep. Please put one (or two) of Silverhair's chests into the storeroom in
the cellar. But that is really all there is :).

Yeah, we should definitely do proper testing before we release it. I guess
if everyone of us will play it from start to finish once (or twice) we can
be fairly sure that everything works out fine.

Still I hope we get it out the next week at least. I wanna return to Uni
on the 7th and tell the dudes there that it is out!

P.S: Since you'll be away, Alex: should I take care of assembling the
extro (and putting in the music) then?
