3rd world or wotever.. the fact remains that you cant possibly conduct a training on Jboss worth 3250USD in this part of the world and expect people to attend.... Needless to mention India has a huge huge market/dev community.. most of development takes places in the s/w services model... so if you want developers to push Jboss.. -they should know what Jboss is -they should know what Jboss can do for them and why its better what i mean by this is a training in Jboss wont just serve as an insight into the server but also to increase the awareness which i guess is lower than it should be..so could be used as a marketing tool as well..
I work with Jboss coz i am in product development...and in services side also the only reason why a client insists on Jboss is "cost cutting"...which obviously aint gonna last forever... the point being IMHO its too large a market for you to just ignore.. "Mass formula" might work...i cant forsee any risks as such..i mean what can possibly go wrong....at the same time its a better idea to kickstart a local community to gauge the interest and the rest... it would give you a realistic picture of the scenario as well.. -Rahul Ganjoo (S/W developer....not a snake charmer ;-) ) -----Original Message----- From: marc fleury [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, November 27, 2002 9:19 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [JBoss-dev] TONIGHT: JBOSS OPEN HOUSE @ GENEVA > > I would like to know if the Jboss Group is planning any > visits(training > etc) in India > in the near future. the formula for 3rd world countries is difficult and not found yet. I am sorry if I badge it 3rd world it is just that I want to candidly discuss this see if we can find a way. I tried to do a training in Brazil and we grossly miscalculated and we had to cancel the training. See normally we charge 3250 for US and Western Europe. In brazil if I charged $1000 it would be still very high. I am thinking about a MASS formula. I don't training anymore but I could do it if I came to India, price it say $500 (or is that too much) do you think I could attract 100 people? it is risky and we never really tried it but I am thinking it is worth a try. what do you think? marcf > > -----Original Message----- > From: sacha_labourey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, November 27, 2002 4:44 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [JBoss-dev] TONIGHT: JBOSS OPEN HOUSE @ GENEVA > > > Hello, > > Do not forget to come at the JBOSS OPEN HOUSE in GENEVA TONIGHT > > Time: 18:00 to 21:00 > Location: Hotel des Bergues (http://www.hoteldesbergues.com/) > > Will be present: > > Adrian Brock: co-developer of JBossMX (JMX implementation) > Ceki Gulcu: Log4j founder > Me: co-developer of JBoss Clustering > > We hope you will come! > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: Get the new Palm Tungsten T > handheld.
