Hi Jimmy,

We have a question for the Telco & NFV Strategies track - is it 6
presentations, or 5 presentations and 1 alternate, that we are selecting?

Also, I asked about whether there's a possibility of a 2nd lightning
talk slot in a different email - how does that allocation work?

Thanks,
Dave.
