OSC/Hercules seems to be going great guns; I'd bet on them.  E'Prime I
don't know about.  Space Services has a sounding-rocket launch coming up,
but they've been shopping for orbital-launch customers for a long time
without success; there doesn't seem to be anything *wrong* with them, but
nothing ever seems to happen.  Amroc is financially tight but making
progress; I question the need for their new rocket technology, but they
are making it work.
