We wanted to address the voting participants in FIRST. Possible voters are more carefully listened to by Representatives.
Joe,
FIRST got $1 million from NIST last year, and "supportive language" was put into the appropriations bill. Such language is often used as a stepping stone to actual funding. After the next congress is seated, there will be another effort to get funding for FIRST. As soon as anything starts moving you'll be seeing posts on CD from FotoPlasma, myself, or possibly others.
