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.
