When you say "..some of this data", you mean pick his brain for ideas? > Question is: do we want it and, if so, how would we use it? If you are picking his brain for ideas, then I say go for it. We can determine how to use once we have it. We may not even need it or it doesn't pertain to the way Ubuntu should be marketed. However, I am pretty sure you can probably get some clever information concerning marketing goals for open source software. Even if you get information that pertains to Sun, you can always try and work it into Ubuntu marketing. To much information is a good thing, to little information and you have a marketing team lost in the dark ;) -- Richard Johnson ~ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ubuntu.com <> kubuntu.com <> edubuntu.com <> xubuntu.com chi.ubuntu-us.com <> buntudot.org online everywhere as nixternal <><
