Laugh hysterically?
She's been spamming Linux, BSD, and other user groups with the same feeble offer from (variously) NetworkWorld, LinuxWorld, and other IDC properties, for quite a few years.

I was thinking maybe I'd bug her about the new "no students" policy at LinuxWorld. I'm not too keen on "age discrimination" as a path to being "more professional".

I'm _so_ with you, on that. I'll be amazed and delighted if any point of leverage on this truly offensive policy can be identified; it's not at all clear to me what got into IDG's tiny little collective brain, but I fear that this might be coming from the executive suite.
