This is the part that I'm not sure I understand. Do we really need to wait until the F2F to agree to the changes that need to be made? My understanding is that Marcos has almost integrated all of them, and also that we believe we now have a level of review way above anything we had before. Why not just go into LC#3 next week, and hit CR#2 at the F2F? -- Robin Berjon - http://berjon.com/
