Dear NAME_OF_PROSPECTIVE_MEMBER,

I would like to alert you to a new online community Web site that I believe you will find beneficial and will want to contribute to.
It is called the Software Business Community, and the URL is

http://swbcommunity.org

The Community is dedicated to making software businesses and the software
industry more successful by the sharing of knowledge and experience relative
to software business across geographic regions, as well as among software
professionals, business managers, academic researchers, and major end-users. 

It makes use of a wiki-based collaboration platform to enable and empower
collaboration and sharing. It is non-profit and works through the collaborative
volunteer efforts of international individuals and organizations. 

As you have considerable relevant expertise and experience, I hope that
you will not only join the Community (registration is simple) and benefit from
the knowledge it offers, but also contribute to the growing base on knowledge.

Best regards,
