We would prefer to wait for at least a week, or two,
at least until we finalize the features of the "Phase 1" that are

in your press release.

I am working on making one, but, as I said, there are still a few 
open-ends to sort out.

That sounds like a good idea too!

And we are grateful for your participation.
