  * cprofitt asked about using video media for a HDYF article; using
    video as a supplement is an interesting idea and we are open to try
    it, but post-production quality of the video must match quality of
    Magazine articles if we will use it; not guaranteed to be used, but
    we are open to the possibility  (jflory7, 22:55:57)
  * AGREED: The time slot and day of week work for Marketing meetings,
