+
+<h1>Community Advocacy</h1>
+
+Since OpenPKG became public in 2002, our world-wide community is
+steadily growing. As of August 2004, we estimate it to approximately
+10.000 distinguished customers -- based on regular analysis of package
+downloads and mailing list subscriptions. Some of our customers
+volunteered and gave <a href="feedback.html">feedback</a> as satisfied
+OpenPKG users. Those of them who provided a personal <i>Public Advocacy
+Statement</i> (see <a href="feedback.html">feedback</a> form) are quoted
+here.

+ OpenPKG has been tremendously helpful in our efforts to make Open

+ Deployment of the OpenPKG infrastructure on a fleet of Sun Solaris
+ machines has allowed our organization to migrate away from a
+ convoluted, out-of-date, shared NFS directory to cleanly managed and
+ easily upgraded package system. This is light-years ahead of any
+ vendor alternative from Sun.

+ OpenPKG has proven itself time and time again as an excellent base
+ for the Kolab e-mail server. Nowhere else can one deploy such a rich
+ set of applications, so consistently, across so many different
+ platforms. The ability to move between different UNIX platforms
+ and GNU/Linux distributions while maintaining a consistent, high
+ quality, environment is an invaluable tool for any administrator.
+ OpenPKG is a natural choice for any organization or Free Software
+ project that need to support various applications on a plethora of
+ UNIX Operating Systems.

+ OpenPKG allows everyone to understand what is installed on a system
+ and makes consequent use of the package sources. I would like
+ to see every Unix-like system make use of this approach so that
+ installation and upgrade of packages finally lose the aura of magic
+ and adventure.

+ We are moving all our internal and customer's systems to OpenPKG which has
+ simplified our development and support.

+ Finally some decent package management for Unix and Linux.
+ OpenPKG deals with all of the headaches so I don't have to.

+ OpenPKG has brought new life to a somewhat deprecated version of
+ FreeBSD I am running. It has managed to keep me up to date on all of
+ the major services it provides without having to do a time-consuming
+ full-system upgrade on a machine in a remote location. I was able
+ to install and make OpenPKG completely functional from a remote
+ terminal all in the course of a day (which included gazing through
+ much of the documentation).
