Are these really changes made to the code or class of service changes made during the course of the cutover (or some other such changes)? Anyone? [Moderator's Note: I have to make a decision this month whether to keep Starline or drop it in favor of CLASS features. Chicago-Rogers Park CO gets CLASS starting October 15; but none of the CLASS features will work with centrex here. So, do I want call screening and auto-return-call, or do I want to keep my group pickup, hold and intercom. Maybe new software will be installed which allows me to keep it all! Decisions, decisions!
