Last summer Alex, Clark, Phillip and I swapped a few emails about reviving the 
245/246 drive and submitting a plan for a PSF grant.  I was pushing the 
effort and then had to lamely drop out due to a new job.

This is good grant material for someone which leads to my question, when will 
the next cycle of PSF grants happen?   I'm not volunteering and I won't have 
the bandwidth to participate, but if there are other starving souls out there 
willing to do the heavy lifting to help Alex it could get done quickly within 
the PSFs own framework for advancing the language.
