I should add that I'm also totally behind this. When Walter jumped into

I can absolutely understand why he did it but it would be really nice if you (Walter, Andrei and probably others as well) could be more transparent about things like these. I think this would really help the community.

This is probably my fault, and a matter of corporate transparency. We didn't want to make a noise about it until we reached a particular level of confidence.

We're fairly invested now, and quietly hopeful it will go ahead from here.
