In my experience, it's not true. There actually people who e-mail OTRS talking about how they have Wikipedia as their home page or how we should make the cursor show up in the search box by default -- they actually go to our main page and search from there. :-) A lot of people definitely come from Google (or at least realize how awesome we are ;-)), but there are other people who go straight to Wikipedia. -- Casey Brown Cbrown1023 --- Note: This e-mail address is used for mailing lists.
