 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.aint-it-cool-news.com/coolnews/980707/media/chicken-egg.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;right&quot; /&gt; Just an update on the progress here: We&#039;ve had several &quot;very interested&quot; letters from potential partner-investors, all of them saying they&#039;d be &#039;in&#039; if the risk of bankruptcy trustees is removed (with a few other rules I&#039;ll post later), and I had a chat with Revenue Canada today, on a tip about their &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ccra-adrc.gc.ca/agency/programs_services/disagree/fairness-e.html&quot;&gt;Fairness Provision&lt;/a&gt; from fellow blogger &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bmoeasy.com/blog.html&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;BMO&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; (don&#039;t you just &lt;em&gt;love&lt;/em&gt; social knowledge management!), and they say they are willing to negotiate provided we can assure them of a pretty paultry payment plan, they may even roll back $9000 in interest charges (see &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ccra-adrc.gc.ca/E/pub/tp/ic92-2/README.html&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;IC92&lt;/span&gt;-2&lt;/a&gt;); &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;MBNA &lt;/span&gt;has also stepped forward to offer matching allowances for any amounts we &lt;em&gt;can&lt;/em&gt; pay against their cards.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So we&#039;re converging on a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/fog0000000054.html&quot; title=&quot;Joel has some tips on that&quot;&gt;chicken and egg situation&lt;/a&gt; where our initial risk vanishes if we have cash to flow, and the cash is set to &lt;a href=&quot;//mt/archives/001432.html&quot;&gt;slap the face of the &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;RIAA&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; providing this initial risk will vanish.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&#039;ll keep you all posted, you can be sure of that.&lt;/p&gt;
