5460.3How About DVN Broadcast?ANGLIN::CLAYTONMerlin Clayton DTN 445-7217Wed Aug 11 1993 14:1911
Is there any way of setting this session up to be broadcast via DVN for the 
field?

This information and new "strategy" is just too important to the field 
resources for us not to understand all of the intricate details.

If the field cannot be completely educated on this new "strategy" before
Interop, then the announcement should be delayed until the field training 
process is completed!

5460.4How about...TRKWSH::COMFORTHere beside the rising tideWed Aug 11 1993 14:479
    
    
    Or a tape... some of us will be on vacation and I agree with .-1 about
    the importance of the field personnel being up on any "new" or
    otherwise modified strategies.
