ah you misunderstood: i want this task done and dusted and declared
closed so that you and i can get the EUR 2500 associated with it into
our bank accounts, promptly.

what i do *not* want is for 10 weeks of work to go by on a task that
gets longer and longer and longer and longer now that we have learned
that the Power ISA spec is not sufficient and have learned also the
extent of the attention paid by IBM to atomics *which we know nothing about*

so i am making the decision to declare the scope of this task to be
of length no greater than (as of right now) 6 days further work,
and *no more*.

i will take care of remembering that it needs to be cross-referenced
to the new grant.  however it shall remain closed at the end of the
task because the scope of payments are for this task and the work
that is done within it.
