There wasn't an official deadline - I intended to count after the email
response died down, but it never really got up in the first place :) We
had one definite interest (besides me), and a couple of maybes, when we
would've needed to have at least 5 brothers committed.
That said, I got a lot of response on CRC projects in general, so it looks
like this is something the chapter is definitely interested in doing in
less hosed states. General information, people should be encouraged to
pursue this project in the future ^_^ I may be poking you guys again in
December about an IAP round.
