[amsat-bb] Re: NAMSATE AND EAGLE PROJECT ARE DEAD!!!

[Ronald Nutter]

The Namast project is not dead.  If you had been subscribed to the 
Namaste listserv, you would have seen messages to that affect.  I think 
it is important to remember that this is a volunteer effort.  If I had 
talents in the engineering area, I would be glad to volunteer but that 
is not where my skills are.  If you have skills in those areas, 
volunteer and help out.
