Quite a lot of Strategy First and Jagged Alliance-related news today, huh? Hope you aren't tired of it. Anyway, here's another snippet from the Bear's Pit forum, this time a conversation from <a target=_blank href=http://www.ja-galaxy-forum.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic&f=33&t=000346&p=1>this thread[/url] between Strategy First's Richard Therrien and... Chris Camfield, an ex-Sir-Tech guy.

• RT: Hi there Chris, glad to see things are shaping up for you.
  
  CC: Thanks, guys! Richard, I'd be extremely interested to know if any of my JA3 design work is going to be used... but I understand if you can't talk about it.
  
  RT: Can't say that we will use the design as is. I am definite that as much of it as possible will be preserved. There is still some way to go before JA3 proper (the actual development) gets started so that leaves plenty of time to insure that everything that can be there is.
  I am also carefully examining the minutes of the design work that was done on DA. That might prove useful as well.
  
  CC: DA = another project that was being worked on in the office I was at.
  I'll leave it to Richard if he wants to say more than that.
  Thanks very much, Richard, for that information.

Well, it looks like probably no Sir-Tech people are involved in the new JA projects, but the good news is that at least some of the old designs by the good ol' team (including the mysterious DA) will be retained. It also looks like there aren't any hard feelings between ex-Sir Tech people and SFI - that's also good to hear.
