Please pass along any part of this newsletter to your group via email or
your website and include the discount codes. We offer both a text and an HTML version.

Thanks

O'Reilly Media is conducting research about a technical certification
program and we want your opinion. Please take our 20 question survey to
help us understand what you want in a certification program from
O'Reilly--what topics, what motivates you, and what you'd expect to get
out of it. Complete the survey and you'll be entered in a random drawing
for a chance to win $200 of O'Reilly ebooks. Thank you for your help!
