Hmm. Since I appear to have started this circus, maybe I should weigh in 
with a further INR 0.02. OTOH...;-)

I have no objection to getting mail informing me of stuff I may be 
interested in, as long as it is not Unsolicited Bulk/Commercial Email. I 
*was* slightly zapped at being registered for some seminar and being asked 
to sign an NDA when this was the first I was hearing of the whole thing. If 
these guys are on the level - which still needs to be shown - then a word 
of explanation in the beginning would have saved them a lot of hassle.
