We have talked to Sales/marketing guys in Novell, they will help us in
contacting partners associated with Novell. We don't have any deadline
as such for now by when they will revert back but we have asked them to
give initial response within a week.

In similar way, if redhat guys can help us in reaching to their
partners, we may be able to get good number of people.

One concern Novell guys had that session cost may be too much for anyone
to attend. They suggested it to be around Indian rs 10000 (~ $225). We
can discuss more about fee during today's meeting.

Thanks,
Akhil
