Chris,

Thanks for this update.  I have it on the agenda for the Cinder team to 
discuss this further.  We ran out of time in last week's meeting but 
will hopefully get some time to discuss it this week.  We will keep you 
updated as to how things progress on our end and pull in the placement 
guys as necessary.
