Emmanuel, I can¹t answer for other folks, I know that myself and my company are committed to seeing OpenAZ be successful. I would ask those folks to please indicate if they are still committed. I know that my management team will get involved and pull in help from our vendors/partners who will be utilizing this software in their platforms. I will raise this issue with them.
