CCIE Growth rate.....

If anyone is interested, I'd be happy to collect CCIE dates from anyone who wan
ts to send me their CCIE # and their date attained.

I'll compile the information into a graph that I'll post out on the web. (Mayb
e Paul can put it in the GroupStudy site?) Some simple extrapolation ought to
show how fast the CCIE community is growing.

If you're interested, send me your CCIE number and date attained : franjime@cis
co.com. To keep down traffic, DON'T send it to the ccielab group mailing list.

Frank Jimenez, CCIE #5738
