1) - Great Work Bruce P and Michelle T!


2) - So many "Debbie Downers", no wonder AMSAT has been frozen in place for so many years:

"In the past, AMSAT volunteers have had a rude surprise when they were held personally liable for violating ITAR,*_or so I'm told_*.

Will ORI indemnify volunteers who work on projects where it may, later, be found that ITAR applies? Is that even possible for ORI to do?

If not, this makes me less interested in volunteering my skills and time to ORI projects.
