Re: Red Hat "Members" Red Hat Inc. has already sent out letters to "members of the open source community," offering the chance to buy "directed shares" in the IPO. Red Hat set aside 800,000 shares (I believe) for this program. I don't know what criteria they used to determine who is a "member of the community" - I've heard everything from having submitted a bug report, to having an @debian.org address, to signing up for their "road show" mini-conference they had in various cities last month. Probably some combination of those things and more. Has anyone started a pool on what RHAT will do the first day? week? month?
