Hi David,

Thanks.  I got word from Gilbert that this had happened, but it is nice
to have closure on my request.

OK, no problem.  When you do the move, I think you will find that
the load on your LDM machines will actually go down.

The LDM-6 by design uses the LDM-5 queue transparently, so this
should not be an issue.

I appreciate your caution, in the move.  Please let us know if we can
help out in any way when you get ready to upgrade.

Later,

Tom
