+'''A/V issues update'''
 IT/Operations is working to reduce AV issues overall.  We are prioritizing these issues based on user needs and requirements, because ultimately Video Conferencing should be like making a phone call.  It just works.  So please take this opportunity to let us know what is important to you when it comes to Vidyo and how it could be better.  We are excited to get your feedback

+'''Data Center Move Update'''
+As you know, IT is moving from scl1 to scl3 for
+cost savings (over $900K saved so far, and growing!).
+The "end user visible" part of the process will be starting early on
+Monday May 19, and continue for approx. 5-6 weeks. We'll be announcing
+the details during various engineering meetings next week.
+The long term benefits include:
+ - continued cost reduction
+ - faster response time for technical issues
+The short term impact includes:
+  - only impacts engineering
+  - build farm capacity will be degraded at times (especially M-Tu)
+  - no tree closures are anticipated.
+  - releng will be extra busy during the moves.
+We'll push a more detailed note to the dev-platform list,so you can direct any followup questions there. Check it out:
