I see.  Well, having done the reverse, I can tell you that it was a good 
call on our part, even though they did get the traffic issues sorted out 
so getting around town was reportedly not bad.  But the office I was 
based out of was a block from where they were doing the awards 
ceremonies, so getting in there would've been a PITA regardless.

So far it's slated to go through Dec 31 - but who knows what that might 
lead to.

I've got some ideas as to why the new product was on the list of things 
to work with.  It might have something to do with the fact that it's used 
for managing the testing environment for the other product. :)

And keeping my mind active - yeah, today was like that.  Spent time 
working with a SAML 2.0 connector for Apache that hadn't been touched/
updated in years, and got it completely working about 10 minutes ago with 
the current build of the software.

I *love* doing this kind of stuff, and the feeling of accomplishment that 
comes with figuring something out.

Jim
