>>>> Greetings all,

>>>> We have an opportunity to present a HEO proposal to JAMSAT.
>>>>
>>>> They want a HEO. They need more engineers and volunteers. We have core
>>>> technology and technical volunteers.
>>>>
>>>> Attached is a presentation from Jan King from the 2014 AMSAT-NA
>>>> Symposium. There was a workshop and presentation. I know several people on
>>>> the list were there.
>>>>
>>>> I'd like  to take this proposal (attached) and *update it for 2022*.
>>>> This will be an open source project, open to international collaboration,
>>>> and everyone that can follow our code of conduct and comply with our
>>>> participant and developer guidelines is welcome to join.
>>>>
>>>> We'll have a weekly "office hours" meetup. Day and time will most
>>>> likely be Monday evening US Pacific starting out. First meetup will be this
>>>> coming Monday, 1 August 2022.
>>>>
>>>> We have a $50,000 pledge for funding (if the proposal is accepted).
>>>> This is a good start! There are many other opportunities for fundraising
>>>> once we have a viable proposal. Fundraising will be challenging but not
>>>> impossible.
>>>>
>>>> There is a lot of work that needs to be done before presenting to
>>>> JAMSAT, but we're well within reach and we are capable of delivering a very
>>>> good result. P4DX and other project work will be included.
>>>>
>>>> If you are not familiar with JAMSAT, they are the national Japanese
>>>> amateur satellite organization. We have presented our work at their
>>>> Symposium, they have been gracious and generous hosts, they support open
>>>> source, and have a friendly and active membership. The JAMSAT newsletter is
>>>> outstanding.
>>>>
>>>> We are weakest on thermal design, but we did get some familiarity with
>>>> basic modeling using Thermal Desktop.
>>>>
>>>> We are second-weakest on propulsion, with our focus being on
>>>> synchronization techniques for electric motors. You may have noticed our
>>>> fundraiser to build an application for the patent we have been allowed to
>>>> use/exploit from GWU.
>>>>
>>>> We are strongest on digital communications.
>>>>
>>>> I expect we will leverage a lot of workflow know-how from Libre Space
>>>> Foundation and others.
>>>>
>>>> We need a name for the project and a logo! If you're inspired to get
>>>> creative, please share your ideas.
