Research, page-1925

With all due respect, from memory this announcement is about a year old and came out in the famous "5 announcements in 4 days" pump. Following this announcement, despite some comments about Alan Boyd going to meet "major companies" in China what have we heard about this? In fact, following Alan Boyd's appointment about a year and a half ago, can anybody point to any tangible contribution he has made? I seem to remember somebody mentioned that is possible that he was appointed to the board to babysit the CR previously conducted at 1.3 and that research indicated he was linked to investment funds. I haven't looked into this myself, but it seems plausible given that I personally can't figure out what else he is doing there.
