Right now, from what I've seen/read, even if the RFD/CFV goes through,
google will only pick up those 4 or 5 that were approved ... from checking
on Google itself, it looks like other then the Big8, they pretty much
archive all the non-Big8 hierarchies ...
But, if those 4-5 do end up passing, we can gate those on top of the
"private hierarchy" from a propogation perspective ...
