	I think we should be as broad as possible and focus on GNOME being a
usable desktop for everyday tasks.

	True - and those are the most important points :-)

	Sounds good but we really need to know if they charge for a booth
because if they do, we probably want to get Ximian/Wipro to help sponsor
that bit.

	Ximian and Wipro are quite a bit into GNOME themselves. They are pretty
likely to be putting up stalls there to showcase their own involvement
with Linux but I am not sure if they shall be GNOME specific. Perhaps a
good idea is to talk to somebody at both companies. 


	Also, I think we mean Novell India here - the Ximian guys in the US
probably have no clue about all this :-)


	Ravi.
