Hi Stacey, thanks for that, however Rhonda's point is in my view a very fair one. What I have been doing is publishing the audio tutorials as soon as possible, so people can get a feel for the forthcoming release. However, this goes into far more detail than the announcements about the next release that we publish, and therefore it disadvantages people who can't hear the tutorial. The information is contained in he User Guide, but of course it's generally not ready for publication when I have been putting up the audio. That is inequitable, and some way or other, we will have to correct that for the future so that the publication of the audio tutorial is synchronised with when we can publish detailed information about how to use the new features in text form.
Once we do this, then the information one has access to in text is equivalent to the information one has access to in the audio tutorial.
