Nathan, people reading at least 5-10% of the (huge number of) ADSM-L postings already know: - v4.2 will be out of support soon - when exactly it will be out of support - what goes on with v5.1 - the "stable" and "not-so-stable" maintenances/patches of ITSM v5.1 etc., etc.
So many of the subscribers of this list know already how to do the TSM stuff and in case of problems get support from the list. I am trying to say you many of them can do their job *without* using your services at all. Now lets have a look what are you offering anyway: - "... a new unique business model with Tivoli ..." - so many companies offer TSM with installation and support and hardware and whatever you want ... There is nothing unique in your offer. Even the mail list spamming was invented by someone else. - looking what is the company offering - redirected by the URL in your signature I reached a page at (http://pathfindertech.protectedsite.net/) titled "Site Not Found" with very explanatory content "No web site is configured at this address." - trying to look at the person making the offer I had some "success": -- my personal ADSM-L archive (all posts I received during last 18 months) returned no hits for both "nathan" and "norrgard" -- searching at ADSM.ORG there were numerous posts from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> from 1999 and 2000. Mainly posts were questions not answer and due to "vague documentation". Were they RTFM or not I do not know - had no time to check them all (but some left me with the impression). If you have something to add to the discussion you can both in private (my address is shown) or publicly (to the list). But you need many arguments to change Eric's and my opinion - shameless advertising, period!
