Hmmm.  So, my definition of archived data is off a bit.  Looks like I'm
describing near-line data when talking about scanned documents, signatures,
photos, etc.  By the project's definition, these definitely need to be
nearly immediately available.

In your experience, are these terms that management types readily
understand?

Thanks Terry!
