all valid ideas, Arjun - and we will evaluate all of them (and all those shared 
on this mail thread as well.)  

we'll be reaching out to everyone and anyone who's interested to get their 
experiences, learnings, suggestions, etc. as we move forward in our evaluation. 
 this will be an open and collaborative process - and i invite everyone to 
please take part in this.  we'll send out details on this asap.
