==============================
Divine's European marketing director, Chris Blaik, has
approached me to see if Divine could offer IWR a 'product
trial' of their new release, Divine Single Point. The
latter seems to be Divine's incorporation of Northern
Light into its main, branded business. Chris said of
Single Point: "I believe (as does divine) that this is
the way forward for Search Engines and shows the value of
librarians and library services within software."
I've told Divine that we don't publish vendor-arranged
'trials', but I do think it would be interesting to get
an independent review - so I wondered if any UKOLUG
members might be interested in trialling the product and
producing a short-ish review (say 1000 words). We'd be
happy to pay a fee of £100 for this.
Divine is happy to offer free trials for the purposes of
the review and I can forward the Single Point press
releases to you if it would be helpful.
Kind regards
Helen Jezzard
