Now that Airbus has admitted to having to produce less than the expected number of aircraft in the "second wave" of production, does anyone know how many aircraft are going to which airline over the next two years?

Is it true that Emirates will now not get any A380s until well into next year?
How many aircraft will Singapore get for the rest of the year, and Qantas too?
Was there any other operator who was supposed to get them next year too?

The press release (http://www.airbus.com/en/presscentre/pressreleases/pressreleases_items/08_05_13_A380_ramp_up_revisited.html)

Airbus plans now for 12 (instead of 13) deliveries in 2008 and
21 (instead of 25) in 2009. Details about the new plan and the further
ramp-up and delivery slots in 2010 and the following years will be discussed with customers in the coming weeks.

This is the wikipedia version of the current order and delivery status (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Airbus_A380_orders_and_deliveries#Orders_and_deliver ies_by_year_2), before revision I presume.

Thanks gents,
The B747-8 still seems pretty low profile in spite of the A380 delays. I guess Boeing have their hands full with the 787 delays!
