My response was somewhat tongue in cheek. I would have to agree that any bashing would be very counterproductive. As far as advertising to the MS meeting about the Samba meeting, I think a tasteful flier or poster that makes no mention of MS (except perhaps to indicate something about cross-platform compatibility), would be the most appropriate way to attract attention.
