Hi Daniel,

That's quite a bit further than anything I suggested. My notion was
that after the presentation has been accepted, the mentioned vendors
receive a copy... not so they can attempt to squelch it but so that
they can respond when the presentation is given.

Besides, which among you would dare try to squelch a NANOG
presentation? Y'all are well familiar with the Streisand Effect.

Regards,
Bill
