Holy cow. Do you realize this is a freaking dreamteam?
CPS absolutely REFUSED to support LRT before and now they are. VIA didn't donate any manpower to the idea before even though their head wanted LRT. Richard Perez is a freaking GOOD GOOD person to have on board.
I don't know who Jim Reed is, but he sounds familiar.
Also, the last one was scuttled by hometown "hero" Wendell Cox whose interest lies in the pocket of beyond-410 (and now beyond-1604) developers.
