ASACP membership is growing by leaps and bounds. Also, they just hired a new CTO - http://asacp.org/press/press0703d.html and will be announcing new software in a few months.

ASACP's Executive Director, Joan Irvine, is speaking at a conference in Luxembourg in Sept., put on by INHOPE.org , and will be communicating with international hotlines and government agencies.
