Scientific paper

During two months of technical time in July and August, major steps in the 3.6- m telescope upgrade plan were successfully passed. I shortly recall the objectives for the 3.6-m upgrade project (see The Messenger 85, 1996, p. 9): (i) optimisation of the mechanical and optical performance to improve the image quality (IQ), (ii) operational stability and efficiency to minimise downtime and maximise scientific return, and (iii) offer competitive instrumentation. After the upgrade, the 3.6-m telescope will return to the forefront of 4-m-class telescopes in the beginning of the next century.
