I'm writing an opinion piece for the Concord Monitor. Title: All NH taxpayer-supported computers and systems should run open-source software. I need examples of municipalities, states, and so on, that have switched to open-source successfully, and what they use. Did you use Drupal to put your town's planning-and-zoning information out? Does your library run Koha? Do your municipal workers use Firefox / OpenOffice / Thunderbird? What about schools that you are connected with? Do they run open-source software? Please feel free to cross-post this. The Concord Monitor has in the past given my articles good exposure, the state is desperate to cut costs, and this could be a good thing for open-source.

Well, there's always the story of the French government's switch to FOSS in their police agency. The only government use of FOSS in US State/Federal agencies is the adoption of Linux for use in certain military applications. T.
