That is because we do not know the right people at HP.  Say you lived in
the same city as Meg Whitman and bumped into her at the supermarket, you
could then introduce yourself as the provider of such and such package
that runs on one of HP's BCS systems and that you provide it for free
but would like a bit more technical/logistical help from HP.

She could then send the message down her troups and you'd have great
support from the right person.

The problem is that the people we are in contact with have no power.
They operate on a fixed budget on a contract to the parent company HP.
