I know that WSC is interested so perhaps this can be a collaborative project with both WebDNA users and WSC funding the effort. I have thought about a project like this very seripusly during the past year. Although I have no estimate yet, my gut tells me that $20-25K is a more realistic figure than the $10K you gave as an example. If you can get commitments for at least half this amount I would be encouraged to think that it may be possible.Sincerely,Kenneth Grome---------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed tothe mailing list .To unsubscribe, E-mail to: archives: http://mail.webdna.us/list/talk@webdna.usBug Reporting: support@webdna.us Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
