Here is what I wrote and he responded; it is rather thin on content, and doesn't directly answer the question (which I guess he couldn't directly do) but you can judge for yourselves what it means...

Hi Chris,

This is my first time writing to you directly but we’ve had a few indirect conversations on the Agoracom forum (I’m dash8400).

A question about yesterdays’ news release: does this release actually contain material information? I direct you to this statement:

“….but more recently, we have scaled to 100nm”.

Should this be interpreted as MS8 completion?

Thanks for anything you can provide.

...and his response....

The article corroborates what POET has been stating publicly for quite some time. That they are at or around the 100nm milestone.

Chris
