Ah, I see, thank you for the explanation. Good luck, sounds like a very difficult and time consuming project, I commend your ambition.
Like you, I'm also very busy but I will try to track the project and lend a hand if I can if you're able to succinctly express some work that needs to be done, and it's within my area of expertise, at least. But I realize even that takes time and might be difficult. No promises from me of course, as usual, due to time constraints.
