You can find a lot of information of Italo's great summary of the past 2 
years of our growth as well as adoption in large firms on our blog 
[http://blog.documentfoundation.org/2012/12/26/tdf-in-2012-a-summary/]

Not sure what you mean?

Yup, see below.

You just mentioned our wiki page where we are centralizing this 
information 
[https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Deployment_and_Migration]. Then it 
is a matter of better formatting this page and adding to it.

If you want to give it more prominence on the marketing section, then we 
could add it to the Marketing menu bar for easy access.


Do you have editing rights on Wikipedia? That would be great!
