Tasha herself said that the Prosolo series was almost dropped completely
this year and is on shaky ground for next season unless it reaches
profitibility, an impossibility under the present business plan, hence it's
inevitable demise is a self fulfilling prophesy.
It does seem to be true that Solo2 does subsidize the rest of the solo
program and the organization because of the accounting methods used, i.e.
the rulebook sales, the membership fees from those members that list more
than just solo2 as "interests" do not go into a separate Solo2 budget. No
efforts are spent on securing solo2 only sponsors.
