Rick, et al,
per the business card raffle. I don't recall any such policy - even at
SVBUG we had none.
But many times a manger likes business cards as a reference (to verify
process or
other business instances), or to get leads.

As with many startups in this stage, you'll be happy to know that the
word of mouth
is good within the community. And if there is interest, members are not hesitant
to give frank opinions. This may concern some, if there are faults in
the product,
but we are always available to reiterate our concerns and make suggestions.
On the plus side, if we like a product, we will without reservations
tout it's wondrous
advantages to all who will listen.

Best Regards
Jesse
