I think the key here would be whether or not the registration form were collecting the kind of information of true market value to Walnut Creek CDROM. If so, I don't think I'd have any trouble convincing them to mail out discount coupons good against future product purchases to those who provide a postal address and other useful demographic information. The question is simply what the superset of that information is going to be - I've never written such a questionnaire and am honestly not that sure what I'd put on it. It's something we could probably work out offline with WC, however. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
