We need to know who this person is and what's going on before we
respond to this.  He should have been able to get everything he needed
from Bruce so if he didn't, then there must be a reason.  Nothing
sinister, just want to know how best to answer him.

Brian, do you know what the story is with this person?

Hi,

My name is Rick McNeal and I work in ESG's Advanced Development Group.  
Bruce Edge indicated that you both are working on ONstor's project to  
move the proprietary code to Linux. Is that correct?

I'm trying to find out what version of Linux you're targeting, what  
build environment you're going to use, and which Linux distribution  
your product will be based on. The reason I'm looking for this  
information is I'm trying to get a handle on how many flavors of Linux  
LSI might need to support. In particular, at some point the ONstor  
work will run inside of a domU and use the coupling driver that's  
being developed in India. I've been working with Bruce to get this  
driver ported to his team's project and we'll need to think about your  
needs as well.

So, I'm just hunting for information at this point.
