Todd,

As long as (and for whatever good reasons) there is the historic long and even  
recent moderate delays getting things through csna, it is of little use for  
timely announcements, and so I do not fault anyone for going around the system  
to get timely information (commercial or otherwise) out.  cnsa, as it currently  
operates, is more suited to the FAQ list, and user group schedules, rather than  
important announcements.

I am not attacking you, I am too busy myself to offer to do any better, but  
just making a personal observation as to the way csna seems to operate.

Jim
