No comments, per se. I'd have to see what is happening before I make any

I would recommend that you call tech support and
open a case so that one of us can call you and log into the PM to see

Obviously, I'll be curious to hear what hapens on the ascend mailing list.
(No, I'm not on that list...maybe I should be. :) :)
