Actually, I hope folks understand and recall that AMSAT's mission and
vision statement was changed a few years ago.

http://www.amsat.org/amsat-new/AboutAmsat/mission.php

So there isn't a program underway to replace AO-40.

That happened at an annual meeting and was voted on by paid members as
I recall.  Or maybe it was done by Board members elected by paid
members.   I honestly forget.

This list, obviously, remains open to members and non-members alike.
That too is a conscious decision by the organization.
