It says here: http://koha.org/showcase/near-east-university

"Unimpressed with the handling of Turkish characters in other major
proprietary ILS systems, NEU chose Koha because the open-source ILS
gave them the freedom to fine-tune searching and address character
encoding issues in-house. The ability to customize Koha has enabled
NEU to develop many new features for Koha in-house, including a SMS
service where users just send a text message from their mobile phones
to renew their books automatically. NEU is a major player in the Koha
community, and are devoted to fostering community growth by
contributing back their features. Those features will likely be
included in Koha version 3.0."

I wonder what version they are on atm?

Kind Regards,
Chris
