yes and no: I think it's important for someone to know that a french
university has choosen Koha and BibLibre. If you're a university, you
may find this information usefull.
And if you investigate to choose or not koha: important to see it's a
project heavily supported by companies.

I strongly think companies must be at a second level and all being
equally presented, as they are now. But I also strongly think that
companies activity is a big + for the project itself.
