    We have evaluated this request and determined that it cannot be implemented at this time. In the current design, HOD administrator will define the session definitions for HTML based model. And, the same will be made available to all the users. Copying existing session definitions is allowed; however, importing is not allowed, because the preferences are stored on the local (client) machine. If the HOD data is lost on the (client) machine, we may miss the imported session definitions. Also, as per the design, the client machines are supposed to hold only the "delta" session information (.df - delta files). Hence, marking this RFE “rejected”. Thank you.
