David, Yes, I've been working with Ski to try to get media attention and have our Directors quoted, if possible. I'm certain that if that happens, there'll be a notice on the list or on the LOPSA blog. If you have any media contacts, I'm all ears!
Also, about the ad on the blog, I don't know, but I suspect it's related to Puppet being a gold sponsor of LOPSA. At least, that's my guess.
