I think the potential for this goes far beyond Eugene.. . What do people think about making a site dedicated to collecting this sort of info (via a database)? One mention on Slashdot, and we'd have a lot of entries in it. Asking for: Name/etc, Company, contact info, project, budget, savings ($ and time), etc. Make it searchable so someone could say "Show me anyone who has sucessfully used free software in Oregon, with a budget saving of $10,000 or more.." or whatever. The work of doing one for 'us' would be about the same as doing it once for everyone, and then Other LUGs and free software developers/supports could point people to one place to find success stories. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
