Version: 3 Date: 2004-08-19 User Name: 7058 Action: Add Comment Comment: Hi Robert, I have 2 quick questions about doc ID 77722 before I publish. 1. Did you want to add in info on the Netra 410/810 per Don Palko's comments? 2. Is there any special reason why the audience for this document needs to be internal only? Can it be available to customers? If so, I can adjust the audience setting to "free" or "contract" customers, whatever you prefer. Please email me your thoughts on these questions and then I'll publish your document.
