Kevin,

Despite your relative youth -- did it ever occur to you that the
Syngres/Osborne materials might be WRONG!!! Especially since Priscilla -- as
my aging brain recalls -- was once of the authors of the versions of the
CCDA exam.  Who would know better -- the author (who was then employed by
Cisco [I believe] -- or the publisher of IT books??

As this thread takes its last gasp of breath -- I implore you to reconsider
whether your statement that a change indeed took place (about a year ago) or
whether its more likely that the publisher was in error. gasp . . .gasp . .
.gasp

granted!

This thread got started because I thought I was reporting something "new" to
the group about certification.

At one time Priscilla and the oldest NP/DP had me doubting my own memory
about what was required to get CCDA a while back.  And now CCO and "newer"
books had me wondering also.

It seems though that the change probably happened probably a year or so ago.

Anyway, I'm happy ........ this thread can die anytime now (as the group
heaps applause...)
