Wilksch Diesel

I derive from reading the press reports that Wilksch have developed a
marketing agreement with Europa Aviation.
Will/have Europa been evaluating this engine and thus how soon may Wilksch
Diesel engines in firewall forward kits be available from Europa?, 
Has any other Europa aircraft apart from G-WWWG been fitted a Wilksch diesel
yet, is an independent view of this engine available, or is it still in
testing/prototype status.
I see the 2001 quota of engines has been reserved and reservations for 2002
are currently being taken. Are any list members intending to fit diesel's in
2001??

I'm still in the planning stage of my homebuilt, but i'm quite impressed by
this engine and personally would prefer a diesel to a petrol based engine.
Although the way it's going i'm not looking to make an engine purchase till
at least 2004!!!

cheers
