Hi Frank,

I saw your message, and thought that I'm sort of in the same
situation. I'm the IT manager for an always cash strapped newspaper,
The Union, in Grass Valley CA and I'm looking at alternatives to the
seemingly ubiquitous Quark Express. Perhaps it's be good to get more
of these "I've moved from platform X and here's how I did it stories".

I am planning on presenting Open Source solutions to a group of my
peers in about a month or so. Would love to hear other's stories.
