The ad sales guy was helpful and had good suggestions. Basically, we give them a copy to play with and have our 'PR' guys (Jordan? ha, ha.) call their editors. They've actually softened a bit towards Linux and "other freeware" in recent months (< 12). I think their guys are starting to understand "what the world would be like if Microsoft built cars" (If you've seen that one!) and if it were the ONLY one who built cars. I think given the current public sentiment about MS and the DOJ controversy and the snotty attitude their people have shown, Infoworld will be surprisingly receptive. I haven't heard anything from anybody on the core team in response to this topic. How about it, guys? You are the ones who've sweated blood to make this FreeBSD what it is. It's your baby, and I'm not going to promote something you won't appreciate. I'm just a newbie here. -- oooOOO O O O o * * * * * * o ___ _________ _________ ________ _________ _________ ___==_ V_=_=_DW ===--- Don Wilde [don@PartsNow.com] [http://www.PartsNow.com ] /oo0000oo-oo--oo-ooo---ooo-ooo---ooo-ooo--ooo-ooo---ooo-ooo---ooo-oo--oo To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
