Could you provide an update on your progress? We appreciate contestants letting us know how things are going so that we can assist with any issues you might have and maintain an awareness of all task status.

I am going to reopen 20 due to a lack of response from the contestant.

I will also lock this thread so that there is no confusion with a new thread, if it is selected by someone else.

Kevin - hope everything is okay. I understand things can get busy. Take care!

Task reopened at Winvin's request within the existing timeframe.

Kevin - this work should involve the community. Please provide your rough draft and we will begin the community review process, even in the limited time remaining. Try to be more responsive to requests for progress reports, too.

Thanks.
Amy

Sorry about that, really busy with a few of my websites. Had some issues these past weeks with them . I will provide a rough draft of it asap.

I spoke with Kevin. And, he has very good reason for not being available. So, Kevin, thank you for participating with us and we will see you around the forums. Take care - we're here - talk to you soon.

Amy

I will lock this for no future confusion.
