I'm working on a "Support Options" brief / talk, to go with someone
else's "Acquisition / Starting in Open Source" on the Presentations
Track. Also willing to help in some of the demos, including being
there for dry runs, and working on the list of demos. I'm also
contacting a friend in IBM to see about their support, including
freebies of Domino & DB2, interest in support table, donations, etc.
