If that's a nudge in my direction, I'll take it. :-)
It hasn't been generally announced, but I've accepted a position with
XCOR as the Government Liaison. And Dave's right about neither
confirm nor deny: all I can talk about outside XCOR is what's on the
web site - which I haven't looked at lately, though I understand FAA's
Congressional liaison said something nice about us - so don't ask me;
go read the web site. :-)
To answer Dave's question a little more directly, yes, Xerus is
actively under development.
