Hi guys, I have noticed that there are some complaints about who is
sending what to whom. I don't know every companies exact plans and how
they are determining who they are sending to.
But we are evaluating which sponsors are participating and which aren't.
And some sponsors have participated in other ways, for example VA has
been helping with organziation in the cities that they have offices in.
And some other sponsors have participated in different ways.
There is also the matter of how many personnel a company can dedicate to
sending out literature, etc. LinuxCare had one person do all of their
mailings for them and I would imagine that it was the same for a lot of
other companies.
So please be patient. If the stuff doesn't get their in time it could
still make good door prizes at LUG meetings. :)
