Do you agree with me about having a list of "known" articles and making 
an "outline" style of list showing the governments, businesses, etc., 
who switched?  The would be much easier that telling the potential user, 
or manager, to go online and "Google" for articles and/or go to one of 
LO's pages for a list of articles.

I do not have the time and such to search for all of these articles and 
white papers for the information.  It would be a good idea of having a 
wiki page set up where a "poster" would list the
organization name and location
number of PCs if known
a few sentences about the organization, business, government [maybe]
the URL where the info was published

all organized by country.

I know there is a page that list articles by region, but it does not 
help with a quick look at the who and how many have switched.
