Oh, probably 3 months or so for the timeline. Sometimes I get side-tracked on multiple projects and delay things but that seems like a reasonable timeline to me. If earlier, then all the better. Glad you enjoyed the CDs! And I love the idea of the Box Set. I never thought of that...was it Chris that suggested it? Or Ted at Y2K8? I can't recall. I could put all my CDs in one box and sell for a major discount. That would be 12 of them with me solo or in duo/group projects. 12 for let's say $40? Call it the K-Mart bluelight special. :) Kris ----- Original Message ----- > Hey Kris, what kind of a time frame are you looking at to get this > done?
