I'm not sure exactly which forum this fits in but NASA has just released the AO for Discovery Program 2006 and Missions of Opportunity. See the Discovery Program Acquisition Home Page for more details. Click on the "Discovery AO" link to download the PDF.

Answering John Rehling's question: no, there's no specific reference in the Dunham piece to a direct 2010 launch from Earth being capable of sending CONTOUR 2 to Comet "HMP" (I flatly refuse to respell its name again) in 2011. But the flyby would be only 0.08 AU from Earth and only 0.04 AU closer to the Sun than Earth is, so I presume it could easily be done by direct launch with a small booster.
