Chris: We have chosen not to do that for a couple reasons. One is that we update those markers fairly regularly, and having it on within the portal means it’s a living document. We don’t have to continually update the manual as a PDF and then have to worry about version control on all of that, which would be a really problematic, and then it’s a pretty significant piece of intellectual property, and offering it as a PDF I think presents challenges in terms of sharing. I mean, we trust all of you implicitly not to do that, and unfortunately, we’ve had some experiences in the past which just led to us feeling the need to just put some processes in place to protect the intellectual property of the program.
