Tempri: please move your sorry behind to the XCube sites and fawn over Onokazu there. I think XOOPS will be better without you here This is just my own opinion of course.

Good advice...

So you give you some background, the company I work for has:
<snip>

My thoughts: No one in the company cares. They have problems that XOOPS would solve as I proved with the test site. While it's no skin off my teeth, it would be nice if the company made some improvements and maybe attracted more business. My motto for the company is:
"You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink"


Right. Then why sell them XOOPS at all? Sell them a better managed website. Give them an estimate of the costs in money (recurring costs, investment and setup costs, that sort of thing), and an idea of the immediate benefits and loger term potential (increase in quality, better corporate communication, etc.). If they don't care whether it is open source XOOPS or closed source IBM software, don't make them consider that. Make them consider the website.

I'm an e-government consultant, and get this kind of question a lot.

It shouldn't matter what licencing model is attached to the software, what should matter is if it meets the requirements. These requirements are technical (does it work in our architecture), functional (does it perform the task we need it to do), and management and maintenance wise (what guarantees on service level, support, maitenance, training, etc. do we get) and implementation (can we get proof that this product does what we need, and that the implementor can do this?). Then you make a list of pros and cons, costs is just one factor in this equation.

The only thing you're asking from your company, is that they look at ALL available type of solutions, open ánd closed source.

Same here. The sf.net site doesn't list anything about any work being done on the mirroring service, so I hope it's not something bad...
