MMP will still be the cash cow, however, there is an eventual end to this . The future lies in PDSG and/or whatever it evolves into.

Baroni report should be completed before the end of the year.

We now have a new board member from Cognizant (Mistry)

Baroni has a wide circle of contacts including Gordon Coburn the CFO/COO of Cognizant. Could Coburn be the next replacement for Flowers? Might the next CEO candidate be someone who is on the BoD for Tech America?

Just some thoughts other than recert and claims.
