Re: [orca-list] Orca team is at CSUN this week

[Willie Walker <William Walker sun com>]

Hey All:

CSUN went well this year and the response to Orca seemed very positive 
to me.  Thanks everyone on this list for being part of the community --  
your comments and suggestions have definitely helped make the difference.

It was also great to meet members of this list in person to do some 
in-depth discussions of Orca together behind the machine.  We have come 
back with general themes that emerged from our discussions and will be 
prioritizing our tasks as a result.  Great stuff.

We're all digging ourselves out from under the e-mail that accumulated 
while we were giving presentations and talking face-to-face with users.  
I also plan on taking at least two days off to recover/recharge.  As a 
result, we still might be a little sluggish in our responses this week, 
but we'll still try to be there for you.

Thanks everyone!

Will
