Brief update:  Just a quick update (in the absence of any real news in the past few weeks) to let everyone know that we have been working hard on the project. In large part this has included working on an updated version of the project proposal paper and the website in preparation for the contribution campaign hard-launch.  We will be provide a more detailed update on this and other updates next week.

Reminder for those interested in getting eShares:  the contribution campaign hard-launch will take place at the beginning of the New Year (Jan. 1 2017).  Once that occurs, the contribution amount for each eShare will incrementally go up as each contribution is received.  In other words, those who contribute early will get more eShares per contribution than those who contribute later.  If you know you will want some eShares, then now is the best time to contribute.

For those who are celebrating the holidays, Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah.  Safe travels to all!
