Are you aware or should you be aware of this.....

There are several issues with this,  the main one being that we get the 
biggest bang for our "gives" to IBM..  

It seems the way this is set up,  IBM will piecemeal us and get a lot of work 
without a significant "get" for Enron (ie an outsourcing or a bandwidth or 
other deal)

Are there IT and Process issues?  Is Sally involved.  Maybe they are 
self-contained and none of this is anyone's business. 

 I would like your thoughts.....

Guys, 

we need to get our arms around this one.  John, IBM India is calling on 
Sanjay's team in India re outsourcing design and operation of data centers in 
India.  I want to make sure that we add this to  IBM's "get"  list.  
Coordination with India has not been easy.  Joe and Ken are asking us to get 
a handle on this.  Rich Thomas is helping to coordinate communication with 
India. Rich is managing the overall IBM relationship.  Rich,  could you 
please get John up to speed on this opportunity.  John will be helping Brad 
and I in the IBM negotiation.  He will be managing Enron's "gives" to IBM.

Jim

Rich,

I just wanted to get synched up on IBM.
Sanjay Bhatnagar said that Joe Hirko
said that we should coordinate.  Is there
anyone else there that should be involved
in an update?  Should Jim Crowder be
updated?

Sorry I missed your conference call.

Atul -

Rich Thomas is going to contact you early this morning to discuss progress 
with IBM.  If you have time before he calls to pull together an e-mail with a 
quick brain dump on the progress that includes any data center, network, 
fiber build, etc. discussions it would be appreciated.  Thanks.
