Great! I hope you get the chance to try out each one and actually work through claims vs. reality (and use each project's community to help you with that). We've seen some comparisons in the past that seemed to have little to do with reality (e.g. "No RSS support in Evergreen" when Evergreen has offered RSS support since release 1.0). > Why Evergreen ?

We're mostly focused on the short term - what will be available when 2.1.0 is released (this week perhaps) as well as what has already been committed to the master repository for the 2.2.0 release (an alpha release of 2.2. should be expected shortly after the 2.1.0 release comes out). > I'm looking for someone who can answer 8 questions about some web3 features > (without surprise, Most of these features do not exist in current versions > of the other ILS tested). A few of us on IRC collaborated on some answers to your questions; we placed them in the Evergreen wiki so that if others have something to share they can add them, and it makes it easier for others to find similar answers to their questions in the future: http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=advocacy:replies:2011-10-02-montoya Hope this helps, Dan
