We wish you a merry christmas and a happy new year 2007, which will hopefully bring interesting times for both Sunbird and Lightning.

  1. Great to hear it’s going on!

  2. When can we expect 0.4? Great work by the way. Any chance of partnering with Calgoo? They seem to have some great stuff going on.
