Michal, Peter,

Pitney Bowes is a customer see the bottom of the message:
"As per our last meeting, PB are working on evaluating update of the 
SLED service pack level from SP4 to a higher version, which the current 
highest available to us is SP6. As part of this our development team is 
wondering if it possible to for us to get access to the early version of 
SLED 15 service pack 7 for evaluation to see if we have issues with our 
Gnome configuration?"

Do you know what's the process here? Do you want to tell them to use the 
public beta program instead or what kind of customer beta program do we 
have?

Note that Gaby gave them already the password for the Beta site,
