[Fwd: Re: POC PR Plan]

[Steven Yung <steven.yung@sun.com>]

Please read following message regarding PR schedule.  It looks like we
have to think about Comdex and how to work around the noise from that
event.  Like I said earlier, we are hoping to come up with a schedule by
Monday.

Cheers,
Steve

Thanks,
