I find the following quote from your post significant:
"From a standing start in 2004 we have secured the backing of a number of private shareholders including Rolls Royce plc and with a lots of interested customers,"...
This is Mezzo telling us they have " a lot of interested customers".
All we need for EDIG to keep its end of the deal and keep the "Customer" happy...
This may, just may, be the year that our patience is rewarde...
