Re: Comments on posters and new template + ITS elipse (Re: Updated validation poster (Was: Re: [Minutes] MLW-LT call 2013-02-20, plus doodle for luxembourg prep call))

Fortunately I was able to easily overlay a semi-transparent mask over the
segment of the ellipse that does not relate to my scenario and I then just
added a bright outline around the remaining segment to highlight where my
use case resides within the overall process. I have it as a
"legend/contextual map" in the top right-hand corner of my revised (but not
shared yet) poster.
