>I didn't hear anything from my Lead so far which could be a good sign. :)

Yeah, that's my impression as well. Or, this could be simply delayed. IAC, I offered help to setup another meeting on the East coast as we had last year in September. After a month, I sent back another request. Only then I got an answer. In a general sense, someone could see it as someone would be trying to buy some time. But, I am sure this is not the situation. With all the changes in there, I would say this is delayed. Otherwise, I guess they might as well simply shut down the program if they are about to ignore renewing MVP status on individuals such as Bonnie and you, just to name two names, that obviously should deserve it without any question.
