        Weekly Negotiations Blog Update Nov 23rd – 30th

        December 4, 2014 08:41

        Here is our third weekly update highlighting posts on the Negotiations blog from November 23rd through November 30th. We apologize for its delay in release.

        This past week was quiet as we are sure you were all reviewing the full TA2 text. We are currently mid-week of our first week of Roadshows. You can find a daily Q&A of each morning and afternoon session on the blog as well. At the end of the week we will send out another update including all of this week’s happenings.

        As you review TA2, if you’ve missed any of this week’s daily posts, you will find them titled below. We continue to use the format of “Q&A”, “Get the Facts”, “Did you know?” and “Hot Topics” for the various blog posts. You can also search the blog via key words you have an interest in and it will bring up all applicable posts (e.g. 4K).
