This is a great idea. My only suggestion would be to add any available case studies and whitepaper pdfs to the bundle. I might also suggest compiling a list of companies that use U2 in-house as well as those that embed U2 into their own software products. I realize some companies might be reluctant to tell their competitors about the "secret sauce" they're using to make themselves more efficient, but I'd suggest to them that's a short-sighted view. If the companies that are using U2 want to continue to grow, it only benefits them to have new developers coming up to speed on it. I think by providing a list of successful U2 deployments to a college student, you are essentially saying: 1) Here's what can be done with this technology, and 2) Here's a list of places to send you resume' once you've learned it. I'll start by volunteering the name of my own company: Momentum Group, Inc.
