The long and the short is that IDNs have been a travesty. I'd like to say that I had some complete answers for you, but the fact is that we were sold a bill of goods and now we need to wait for make good. I have a lot of hope for the concept, but this paricular product has been less than pleasing from most perspectives. The official answer is that the IDN product manager isn't back in the office until Monday (vacation) - I'll ping him and see what the scoop is re: renewals, light, customer guidance etc. I've tried to stick my head in the sand out of embarassment regarding this particular mess, so I don't have easy answers at my fingertips.
