All Marc was asking about was the one-day lab "format". He wasn't asking for
anything more. If this is so wrong why did Cisco let Bruce Caslow take the
beta one-day lab to evaluate this "format" seeing as he writes CCIE prep
courses for Mentor? We all know the results of his lab but he still got to
see the "format" and incorporate it into his classes. If it is so secretive,
I would imagine that he wouldn't have been allowed to see it in the first
place. As a side note I don't think that Marc Russell is really bound by any
Cisco NDA but I do think that it's mighty nice of him to honor it.
