There is no subjectivity to the CIsco approval for Gold status. It is a purely objective audit. I doubt Veemost would submit for approval if they didn't go through and check all of the boxes that are clearly outlined for partners.
Just another opportunity to pick up more cheap shares, this will double or even triple on good news, so anything under .10 is a good buy. IMO The update may be just to a prelude to what is coming. So i believe you are correct, we are close.
