We got some similar feedback at the recent C@B stakeholders' lunch meeting.
I'm open to suggestions as to format, perhaps a dedicated Micronet session
or Security SIG meeting? I would be glad to help moderate and participate
in such a session, especially if we had some additional volunteers who
would be willing to discuss or present their experiences and practices
around using SCS. Please send me a note directly if you would fit into one
of those categories and we can try to come up with a date, time, and place.

Thanks,

--Karl
