I still don't understand what you "need" from the IMMs. All you ever offer is vague assertions that you're roadblocked from volunteering your time and putting something together. Here, you're once again hijacking someone else's new idea to promote your failures in the past. Why is it so hard for you to just take charge? (assuming you are honestly representing your skillset)
