OK, but that doesn't answer my question.
It seems then that the attempt to obtain US government funding for CP4E
has been abandoned, and therefore that there is no upcoming funding
decision to be made (possibly could have elicited an answer of "no" from
them). True or false? 

I need to know because I need to forward the information to a local
school.
