NEWS!!!
Just got this from our man in Singapore!

I'm helping with the proposal and we will submit it tomorrow. This
proposal is for the delivery of a functional specification. If awarded, we
are almost certain to win the implementation project as well.

Timelines are as follows:

Notification (for functional spec work): 23 August
Delivery of Functional Specification: 18 Sept.
Start of implementation phase: 1 October.

So if all goes well you should plan on being out here and working by 1
October. It looks like it's going well, but you can never count on
anything....

So it's not news that we're definitely going, but it is news that we aren't going at the end of this month, which is a relief. October 1st was our original target for a move date, so that's good. And I can give the boss some more reasonable notice now too. Now we need to try and figure out when we actually want to be out there...
