Don't worry Jon, we usually ignore you anyway!  not really - just couldn't
resist.  ;-)

The NDR document review cycle is in the air at the moment.  One reason is we
took a break from the weekly NDR calls and I think we have found from this,
that nothing gets done without them.  So, we resume this week.

Also, the document is changing editors and will be going through a thorough
re-write to bring it up to par with what we feel a Technical Specification
should be.  It has always been a great document full of wonderful technical
information, just needs polish and clarity.  This will be happening over the
next couple of weeks.

We will be deciding on the next NDR call about our timeline and review
cycle.  I will make sure this information gets out to everyone as soon as we
decide on it.  Thanks.

Lisa
