  Emmm... no solo es viejisima esa noticia (de abril...) sino que ya le
retiraron el grant por motivos medio dudosos...

FYI,

It has come to my attention that DARPA has cancelled the POSSE program
with UPENN, (sub OpenBSD & a bit for OpenSSL) for undisclosed reasons,
effective today, without any warning.

My suspicion is this happened because I made anti-war statements in a
Canadian newspaper article in the Globe & Mail, but I am not an
American citizen so I cannot claim to have free speech there (even
made "quote of the day").

We have 60 developers flying in from around the world (they bought
their own tickets, non-refundable) for a Hackathon May 8 - 20, where
we do a major part of our development; since DARPA is now forcing
UPENN to cancel those Hotel accomodations, I would be very grateful if
anyone can find a way to help us.  I'm going to need to pay for it
myself, since these people are going to come.

Thanks.
