Some updates on schedule and FAQs on project

By popular demand the lecture of 11.21 and defence of projects will be postponed to 11.28 and joined together with that lecture. I will be there from 17:15 in class 102 (but if you have lectures, we can start at 17:30) and finish at 21:00.

The people that had original 11.28 date for defence will be prioritised for preferred time.
