Hello Rocky,
Apology accepted.
Well, you are indeed fully entitled to your opinion, but I would submit that until you walk in the shoes of the ARRISat team members who are busting their pick to try and do the right thing for the members, maybe, just maybe, you should temper your judgment about their abilities and short comings given that without their very best intentioned efforts you'd have nothing to complain about and Amateurs wouldn't have a new satellite to look forward to. If our best efforts are not considered to be good enough by a few, we are encouraged by the many out there, who still cheer us on. And since those cheering far out number our detractors, then Robert, the ARRISat team is moving full speed ahead without you on our side.
Yes, you have assumed correctly, that it is our plan to proceed to the deployment date with confidence.
Regards...Bill - N6GHz

Bill. As I noted earlier I do owe you the favor of an apology. You did send me an email and regretfully it got routed where I did not see it....
I read your piece(s).
What to say. You folks bit off more then you could chew and missed a deadline. That is a foundation of project management no matter if it is paid or unpaid. Try and explain it all one wants it means someone (or group) is not capable of good project management.
I assume that you and the team are confident you can make the next deployment dates...?
