Awesome, Malcolm. I love it. You can reach out to me in messaging and I can share my email and personal cell phone so we can chat more formally. I am personally excited to organize more intentionality and collaboration to this end.
I reached out to Julie and Anna yesterday but this was also the day they sent out that lovely mass mailer. I haven’t heard back as of yet but that by no means means we
can not start catalyzing ourselves and beginning the process.
My personal experience has shown me there is a significant lack of truly short season mountain pressure (real mountain frost cycle issues) genetic lineages being worked and shared openly. Or, perhaps I just don’t know of them. I am personally referencing the peoples who don’t have a first and last frost date because that doesn’t really exist 
And any variations thereof. Lots of diverse climatic zones in the mountain regions. Lots of challenges but with that lots of opportunity. Anywho, I’d love to have a conversation in messaging and beyond.
