I 'second this motion', as probably also does Jimmy Wilson, down in
Arkansas.  Management in most companies will use "who's using it and
for how long?" as a metric to compare a product's robustness and the
likelyhood of future support among various implementations.  This metric
has become more important in the recent event of the inability to
quickly hire staff with experience in CORBA.
A simple text list of companies would do for my needs.
