After deducing from context that poop was related to poop deck and that  
what was probably meant was "wind in the sails" and posting that theory, I  
thought to look it up on google. Note that I always post my theories before  
checking the accuracy of them :-)
 
According to _http://french.about.com/od/vocabulary/g/poupe.htm_ 
(http://french.about.com/od/vocabulary/g/poupe.htm) 
 
Definition:  stern (of a ship)

Le contraire de  la poupe est la proue - The opposite of the stern is the  
bow.

Expression: avoir le vent en poupe - to have the wind in your  sails (to 
head toward success) 
 
I do, in fact, hope that the Kantcentrum has wind in its sails and is  
heading toward success.
