| What is the shelf life of Copper bare boards with OSP finish.

Since Maurice brought up the shelf life issue of Cu bard boards with OSP
finish, I'd like to add another similar topic to the discussion. That is
- What is the shelf life of electroless Ni / immersion Au surface finish?
And what is the appropriate storage environment? Due to the advancement
of PCB new surface finishes, a discussion like this will help to promote
the understanding of their impact on solderability and reliability of
end-product.
To Maurice: In August 1995 edition of Electronic Packaging & Production,
there is a paper titled as Alternatives to HASL: A User's Guide For
Surface Finish. OSP is said to have 12 month shelf life with some process
dependency. It is a very good reference to have.
