Decision Year
The phrase "Decision Year" should used as much as possible to make all aware of this year's importance.

Source Code Review
The PSA/contract should include wording regarding 'price per day'. Source code review work will have to spread out over many people or companies.  The Board wondered who can be found for network code review. The Board also expressed some concern about HP's source code controls and missing code. The Board would like a list of 'obsolete' subsystems from HP for review. Maybe what HP considers obsolete really isn't.
