    Dear Nurk,

    Thanks for listening in to the podcast!

    The two largest growth initiatives that we are working on are 1. International alloy specs and 2. Multi-point data (ex: strength vs. temperature data). These are very time consuming processes and will not be complete for years. We have prioritized the multi-point data entry.

    We do appreciate input from our users and consider in our growth decisions. Do you have a good reference that we may use for adding such specs in the future?

    Thanks.

    Dale
