Hello everyone,
They'll just have to get over it and work more closely with us in the future
and encourage their developers to partner with us to merge the technologies
we're developing with their current and unreleased products. Perhaps we were
too quick to give them a Bolotton Award last year. They'll just need to get
unticked with us and move on.

That's why I like the notion of an open letter. It would be a vehicle for
getting it all "out on the table" so to speak.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> our

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 5. Make your skills and abilities known to leaders of
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> your
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> chapter, affiliate, or the president of our organization.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 6. Make every effort to participate in chapter, state
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> affiliate
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> and national meetings, seminars, conferences and

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> news and announcements from all levels of our
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> organization. Ask
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> a
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> president
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> or member to tell you how to take advantage of this

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> learn
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> about

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> network with
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> others
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> sharing common interests, such as your prior or current
