I seems cisco does want this info out, and since I have been getting mail
requesting more info about what they said, here it is:

  Subj:	v35 connectorization

  A new applique has been developed that directly addresses
  the issue of connector size.  Additionally the applique 
  will support DCE operation as well as DTE operation depending
  on the cable ordered.  It will be shipping this fall.  The
  main reason in the past for using "standard" connectors is
  that there are a substantial number of users that want both the
  mechanical and electrical specifications to be met.  I'm not
  sure what the ordering details will be for these new appliques.
  This new applique has a three row, high density D-sub type 
  connector that is about the same size as a 9 pin D-sub which
  will allow you to have two in the smaller box.
