Re: No SP Dates Available

I have scheduled SP date on Nov 13 at RTP and I am thinking to drop it since
am still weak in some MPLS-VPN areas.

If anyone interested to take this date, please let me know. I dont know
about Cisco policy for this but if someone have done this in past please
help.

Thanks,
Jawad
