"The exoplanet community’s top priority is that a line of probeclass missions for exoplanets be established, leading to a flagship mission at the earliest opportunity."

Oh, certainly ... I wasn't thinking of getting data back that quickly.

Any interstellar mission will be done for future generations, not the current ones. We need to think in terms of very long term projects - like the old cathedrals of the 14th, 15th, and 16th centuries, that none of the original builders lived to see completed. Data wouldn't come back for generations...
