OK, here goes a short rant.
 
I received an internal "New Part Number Request" form with a part that
the vendor says will be compliant by 7/1/06.
 
HELLO!!! I need all my parts to be compliant by 4/1/06 (at the latest)
so I can integrate (assemble) them and test my product before shipping.
Are these vendors so arrogant that they don't realize the potential pain
this will cause their customers?  Are they going to pay for the lost
revenue because we didn't get compliant parts until the day we need to
ship completed products?
 
Note to vendors, if you can't supply compliant parts when I need them
I'll find one that will.
 
Sigh. I feel better now, so I'll get off my soapbox.
 
Just my opinion, please don't be offended.
