++++++++++++++    First Reminder  +++++++++++++++++

Hi Authors of DLEP, and All

I wish to see your reply/respond in this thread about the proposal,
please note that it has been now 3 months delay with no response from
the editor or authors. Your respond is required in my opinion for
progress, please advise,

*Please note that the DLEP submission milestone is March 2013*
