Done deal

Remember that deal that took over my life in December and had me living in a conference room in New York for weeks on end?  Well, I'm happy to say that all the work paid off:  The parties signed last week, and it was publicly announced this morning (click here to read the press release).  Unofficial coverage in the media, which provide some additional color, started trickling in last week (here's a story from Bloomberg).  At the risk of speaking too soon (because who knows what still might happen), I'll say that I'm glad to have been involved in the project -- and even gladder to see it finished!
