Marketing Update: 

• @Brandon Wick Gave an update to the TAC on the MAC update.

  • Presentation Slides

• @Frank Brockners asked about LFN vs. project marketing messaging.

• BW: We do some minimal marketing for LFN.  Most marketing is for the Projects themselves.  Each brand has equity and we don't want to take away from that.  But we do want to explain why their are operational advantages for leveraging the technology found in the LFN Umbrella.
