Re: [manet] Topic for discussion?

Lou, 

I agree with Rick - this is a good discussion for us to have. I think we can start from my email, but having said that, it you can put together a slide or two, that would be great. If the great karma of airline travel allows, I'll be in Montreal before the MANET meeting. But, since I was due in Montreal last Sunday night, I guess one never knows... ;-)

Either way, a good discussion to have. 

Regards,
Stan
