The SHTP starts July 2nd from the Corinthian YC in SF Bay. I attempted to upload the NOR to this website but due to the fact that we have a 19Kbyte limitation on uploads, a limitation set in the days of core memory, it will not allow the doc to be posted here. It will be posted to the website.
A partial text of the NOR follows, the format is simple, and the document is shortened , so that this could be uploaded.
