The installation and commissioning of CRIRES, the Cryogenic Infrared Echelle Spectrograph, marks the completion of the original plan for the first generation of VLT instrumentation. Here we report on the commissioning of the curvature sensing adaptive optics part (MACAO) of CRIRES in April 2006. This activity also brings the quasi-series production of the MACAO systems to an end. All four UTs are now equipped with one MACAO system each to feed interferometry while UT1 and UT4 have one additional dedicated system each integrated into instruments. A summary of the overall status of CRIRES is given as well.
