Jack,

Thanks for summarizing here, I do also monitor Technet but find it's
difficult to locate topics of interest without plowing through a lot of
unrelated and often NTC content there.

There's a part of your summary that I can't seem to digest :

"In additon, there was a direct conflict between two comments, one
recommended removing NFPs for thick power planes (BEllis), the other said a
DOE testing 24 layers of 2oz was more reliable with NFPs removed (GGagnon)."

Both comments seem to indicate thick power planes should have NFPs removed -
can you clarify?

Thanks,
Dave
