Dear Serge and all,
Brief news is that no progress yet in Vietnam to get the JJQuad
TLUD-FA-RH gasifier built there. Joe James is communicating with Dylan
to clarify a design question. And there is a cost of about US$300 to
get a press-mould for one key part. I hope we can have more progress
to report soon (but "soon" is a relative term), maybe in April.
