      The Eol step is not time consuming the 2nd one is.  Information
      was shared in the Newsletter in January.  We missed the Feb
      Newsletter due to misunderstanding on dates to publish the
      newsletter and content. True this information could have been
      prioritized in the last 2 meetings.  Should even have been
      mentioned in the onsite meeting which I missed due to NOMCOM
      meeting..I take responsibility for this.<br>
