Hubbard" Sender: hackers-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hook up with Walnut Creek's booth at Interop. I'll tell them to release about 30 of the CDs to you, though I actually think you'll have trouble getting rid of them all. Once you actually start talking to people, you find that the number who actually know what freebsd is and/or are willing to put any kind of investment into being educated is rather small. Go for quality contacts, not quantity contacts.. Later, for 2.1 when we've got a much smoother product and a couple of xerox'd articles and glossy pictures to hand out as "product info", we should go for as many vendors as we can talk into it (and I'm already scheduled to be at a number of shows for this purpose).
