Does anyone have contact information for Novell/Ximian?
Okay, it's not a very creative idea, but it /is/ a company that moved to FOSS. In the mean time, you can use this:
http://www.novell.com/linux/migrate/
It includes Novell's own migration story.
Best, Daniel.

We (Open source resource center of Pakistan )just came to know about a government project of automation for which a government department was about to buy proprietary software worth Rs. 10 million.
We interfered, and requested the ministry to stop the procurement process, and go for an open source operating system and office suite, The member IT, a pro open source official directed the said department to adopt open source solutions to the maximum possible extant.
The said department is hesitant and putting different objections. Now they say, please give us some success stories of some organizations where open source (linux as operating system) has been deployed on desktop level.
Any one of you, who is aware of any such organization please forward me the names of organizations, with a contact point, phone numbers/ emails etc. ASAP..
