Re: [U2] Vinnie Smith
I first met Vinnie over a System Builder 5.1 application at the Home Office in Bootle, Liverpool, UK in 1988 or 89, so yes, he goes back with SB and MV a long time and he's been in the U2 team in Denver for many years - I'd guess 10 or 15.

Re: [U2] Vinnie Smith
The only people really who sell the database without an application are the distributors, everyone else is selling OEM with the database bundled in the application. As distributors we don't have a list but we know our own customers and if someone is after an application that is in a particular vertical we know who to ask in the other geographies.

Re: [U2] Vinnie Smith
Several reasons Firstly to do that means getting people's permission, most of the ones who've given consent are on the Rocket website anyway, but there are a lot who aren't. Secondly many companies don't view it as a priority because it is not perceived by many that it will get them sales Thirdly a list goes out of date fairly quickly And finally it isn't hard to work it as we do, if I am looking for an application for widget manufacturing I only have to send an email to a handful of people and by the next day I'll have the information I need.
