OK Mark, I think I was getting confused, it seems what you are saying is that the company 
themselves canvas a group buy based on interest they see themselves here? or is that that 
you contact them to say there is interest in a group buy, which then generates interest and 
numbers via the forum and hopefully enough to cover the criteria required by the product 
owner...

So I guess I will assume that this is in progress one way or another since its not clear that 
anything is happening (as you say, group buys or negotiations towards group buys can not 
be pre-announced) and of course as you say, be patient as some of these deals take a 
long time.

Cheers,

Guy
