Re: Small menu re-org for 6.0

 

Jeff,

I fine with this.  You might want to proceed incrementally.  You may
also want to post on the user forum about the changes to help eliminate
some of the surprise.  Sudden and significant user interface changes
tend to make people run out of the room screaming with their hair on fire.

Cheers,

Wayne
