Superb idea KJ - If Brian Wiese will compile the list (since he started
the thread :); we can get the list added in one of the OLUG FAQs that I
had been working on anyway; and in the Web directory as local open source
users (if they have a web site of course).

Brian - you willing to compile the list?
