Greetings, List,
 
 
I see a recent update as of May 20, 2009 at the Meteoritical Society's bulletin for NWA 1685, but I don't see any new information included.

Am I reading it right, that it has been submitted for classification since 2003?!
 
If so, is this length of time normal?
Would it be the examining institution's discretion for how long it takes to finally put data to paper for submission to the Meteoritical Society, or is the Met. Society a bit swamped and behind?
 
I know that a lot of us have pieces of this gorgeous stone, and are anxious for the final word.
 
Best,
Pete
