Sorry to send this separately: I've posted a copy of Judge Chin's 
order, obtained from PACER, at

http://home.comcast.net/~richards1000/ExtensionOrder4-28-09.pdf

Per the order, the opt-out deadline and the deadline for 
objectors and amici to submit their views to the court have been 
extended to September 4, 2009.

The final fairness hearing has been rescheduled for October 7, 
2009.  But since the Department of Justice reportedly has begun 
an antitrust investigation respecting the settlement terms:

If the DOJ needs more time, I wouldn't be surprised if the court 
pushed back the October hearing date.
