It would be good to hear from more LL/PTFS customers on the specific
Ditto from here to what Cab wrote. The decision to go Koha thru PTFS was made here before I was hired but I'm told that we went with PTFS because 'the other vendors we approached never really responded.' I've been here less than 2 months and am therefore still learning my way into the ways of Koha and of PTFS, but without much background (or excess baggage) to use as a standard of judgment. Our catalog also doesn't go 'live' for several months yet as we are converting from a card catalog. That said, I'd add that so far we're pretty much happy with the way we've been treated, and that I'm following these emails closely as an open source supporter.

That would be us, among many others. I suspect that most PTFS libraries are simply trying to process what this means for them. And unfortunately, I also suspect that many may feel there is relatively little to be gained by responding in public. If they support PTFS's position, a public defense would put them in the cross-hairs, a difficult position to be in considering they don't know all the facts. If they don't support it, they will most likely seek to open a dialog with PTFS directly, or to simply bide their time until such time as they're in a position to migrate to another vendor. No point in annoying someone who may be in a position to make your life very difficult.
