It appears the Glorioso operation will be delayed until late Sept. or early
Oct. 2008.  Here's some info. from today's Ohio/Penn DX Bulletin #855.

Cliff, K0CA

TO4G, GLORIOSO ISLAND (Postponed Again). Didier, F5OGL, Gloriosos 2008 team
leader, announced (edited): "The operation for Glorioso 2008 must be delayed
for some weeks. The HQ of the south zone of the Indian ocean informed us
that this is due to the fact that important works of facilities will take
place on the island. During two and a half months, at the beginning of June,
anti-cyclonic shelters will be built to protect the military personnal, long
with some equipment for the weather station.
Due to the number of persons who will be on the island during the same
period, we decided with the HQ of force of the south zone of the Indian
Ocean to do this DXpedition when these works will be ended. The exact dates
will be defined according to the operational occupation of the military
transport in this region but we hope to accomplish this operation at the end
of September or the beginning of October. This leaves us the time to improve
our preparations and, we thank you all those who contributed to the
realization of this plan and firstly the military authorities of the Reunion
Island, and our financial and equipment sponsors." For more details and
