My name is Curtis Dye and I work with Novell Users International. Next
Tuesday evening we have arranged a special event in conjunction with the
Linux World Expo that will feature Novell's Chief Technology Officer,
Alan Nugent, discussing the Novell/SUSE/Ximian Linux initiatives with
the NUI audience in NYC. With Novell's move into the Linux space we are
excited to work with the local Linux groups to help Linux professionals
better understand Novell's plans and solutions for the open source
platform.
Please feel free to forward the following information to any of your
members that might be interested in learning more about what Novell is,
and will, bring to the Linux party. Representatives from Novell, SUSE,
Linux and other Linux-oriented companies will be in attendance and will
be available for discussion before and after the main presentation.
All attendees will receive the latest edition of the NUI Technical
Resource Pack (upon its release next month), which includes full Ximian
and SUSE solutions (with licenses through 2004 on the Ximian
components). Each attendee will also receive a Novell T-shirt and hat.
