Agreed. > and possibly mom-and-pop ... I'd say "no" to that -- mom-and-pop use whatever came bundled with the computer their son-in-law setup for them; it is too soon still for somebody like Ximian to be targeting them. > This is *not* our traditional crowd, so are we going to be comfortable > doing this? Fortunately, we would not have to do much. As long as we let Ximian know our plans, and they are okay with them, they can do all the dirty work. All we have to do is get people's attention. For that, we should contact local business groups. Chambers of commerce, town offices, and so on. That Nashua software group we've had dealings with in the past (GNSEG ??) would be good. However, for *that*, we do not have sufficient lead time. We would need two months, minimum, I would think. -- Ben Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | The opinions expressed in this message are those of the author and do not | | necessarily represent the views or policy of any other person, entity or | | organization.
