[Tammy A Wisdom]

Fyi the person posting the pica8 spam etc is nanogs good friend gilliame forntaine who has been b& from there 2 times (soon to be 3). 
To summarize: pica8 is not posting these. It is a crazy dude in france. More details below.
Apologies for the cross post/forward

Subject: Clarification from Pica8 (was Fwd: Mystery open source switching
	company claims top-of-rack price edge)

I just talked to Lin Du (who I worked with when I was at Woven), who is the current CEO of Pica8.  Don't know anything about the product, but this didn't seem like Lin's style.  Turns out Fontaine GUILLAUME has registered pic8.org at gmail.com, has no relation to the company - and is trying to prove to them that he should be a reseller.  Lin has told GUILLAUME to stop (not that that will do any good).  Some e-mail fragments below.
