It's usually a pre-requisite for companies (like Novell) before
they'll turn someone loose with the press. They usually have a
consultant or in-house PR folks go through some guidelines, mock
interviews, etc. What you should expect from an interview, the do's
and don'ts and things you can/can't comment on. (For instance, I have
a pretty free hand when talking about things with Novell, but you
won't ever see me giving any answers/opinions on our financials. Which
is A-OK with me...)

Best,

Zonker
