They're also looking for a new Director of R&D.

I wonder what happened to the old one...

Also, I wouldn't take the openings for process engineers as a sign that something is coming *soon* but rather the opposite. If something were coming this year those positions would've been filled last year.

As is, we're headed into August. Anything coming out this year needs to get to the FCC by the end of the month (90 day process!) and ideally should already be there. Which requires a finalized design and working production samples.

I would take those job openings as a sign that the earliest we'll see anything Liquavista is spring 2017.

Maybe mother's day.
