Indeed. A former employer of mine was Microsoft's favorite 3rd-party XML/
Web Services guru (interestingly, his company claims to be "The only 
vendor-neutral source for XML education" ... yeah, right). I remember
going to a couple of event-planning sessions with him and Microsoft people,
where the expected audience was discussed in terms of being "friendlies"
or otherwise.

Boy, I'm glad I don't work there any more.
