We have most of sw we need, we just need hardware and the initial funding. THAT, however is _not_ easy, it is the likely show stopper. This tender closes on Feb 6th, and we cannot expect them to move much sooner than the 6 months they request for the bid evaluations. However the bid winner gets 10% of the payment as the contract is awarded, and that will get us past all the next milestones. > b.
