The OSI world had a basic difficulty gaining operational experience, the 
way the Internet community did.  Marshall's ISODE package did more for 
helping OSI applications to get field experience than anything that came 
from within the OSI community.

If remember correctly, this event was the one that Marshall presented 
first and when it was Paul's turn, he said he'd just use Marshall's 
slides.  Marshall said that as soon as Paul said that, he knew Paul 
would trounce him...
