Be wise about what you put in this Newsgroup. There are a couple of people
in this newsgroup that like to blow things up and get you in trouble. If
Cisco doesn't know about what you posted then these unrelenting people will
stir havoc in the newsgroup first and tell Cisco about it later. Cisco has
no choice but to then enforce their NDA.
** This is some friendly advice **
