Those rumors might be pertaining to the CubeSat work we are doing at 
Vermont Technical College. NASA is allowing us to use some navigation 
software they developed. The software is written in C and, as C programs 
go, is reasonably well done. We are working on converting it to SPARK... 
a process that is ongoing. We have found a few "anomalies" so far---I'm 
not sure I'd call them outright bugs---but we have only translated about 
25% of the code and we are far from completing all the proofs.

Most of the programmers on this project are students and most of the 
progress on it gets made during the summer.

Peter
