Hi David,

thanks for your comments. I Incorporated them into the draft. 

The current_delays initiation thing is an artifact from the previous versions 
where a filter was used that chooses always the minimum. This was already on 
the ToDo list but we somehow missed it. We want to add a little more text 
regarding the filter anyway and we might just add a sentence that the 
infinity values could no be taken into account when applying the filter.
Thanks again.

Mirja
