Hi Jeremy Glad to see the exchange you have started Jeremy. I am a lawyer in BC (Canada). With the new sarge release of Debian I have switched back to it from Mandriva here at home but at work so far (1 lawyer, 4 support staff) only the server is Linux. We are looking for an accounting system (EsiLaw at esilaw.com looks like the candidate at the moment) that we can somehow put in use without preventing a move to a full Linux system. It is not open source but does seem to have some limited Linux compatibility. The other thing that stands in the way for us at the moment is that attempts to have staff switch to OpenOffice from MSOffice have met resistance. Not sure whether it is the normal reluctance of users to change from what they know and depend on to something new, or whether it just isn't ready for prime time yet. I have never used the Tex types of software you mention. I must look in to that.
Eventually, it will all happen. Hope to see Debian-Lex grow into platform for these changes.
