So, per my initial response, a good and easy strategy would be a one-two punch
of mentioning both 9.6 and 10.0 in the same announcements. The announcements
would headline with and be focused on 9.6, but each would include a footnote
about 10.0 also. That way people are reminded of the 10.0 need without being
hit over the head by having dedicated announcements about it. -- Darren Duncan
