Open Source means rethinking the RFP process. What wide-scale testing have you done so far?

The KCLS software specs were for writing a LOT of new code and I'm thinking that's not really what you had in mind so wanted to clarify. I do have an RFP sample for support I could share. And another very simple one for implementation and training.

We are in the latter phases of identifying our development needs for Evergreen with the plan of issuing an RFP for system development in early summer. I was wondering if anyone in the Evergreen community has an RFP they have used for system development in Evergreen or another open-source product that you would be willing to share with us. I do have a copy of King County's RFP for system support as well as the specs they posted to the http://oss4pl.org/ site. Thanks in advance for your help!
