I am not sure if you want to talk to Whally first before you talk to Reuters. If possible, I would give Whalley a day or two to talk to John and Lavo. In the mean time, Mike can see, on an enterprise license for a year, how high they are willing to go. Your thoughts? I will also tell Philippe about this if you haven't already. Also, Webb called me and I will see him tomorrow about planning around your departure.

We may as well capitalize on this because: We can't not sell them terminals (Access will be available if the floor traders want it-- IF THEY WANT IT, THEY WILL GET IT.) The large spread traders already know where ENE is at Our competitors have been playing the EnronOnline/ floor arbitrage game since day one (it was part on our success) REUTERS ABILITIES: 1. Reuters has the right to limit "wall board" availability; NYMEX has the right to buy terminals from Reuters 2. Reuters will request "consistency"; in regards to pricing, re-distribution, etc 3. Do not have the capability of breaking up the data set OPINION: Sell it. 25K per month. Unlimited enterprise license.
