For the record, Crowell Systems is a company that
contracted me to do some AbiWord work for them.
Specifically that burst of mail-merge related work.
They're deploying AbiWord 2.0 on Linux on tens of
thousands of seats.
Here are 3 official quotes from their PR department
that we're probably going to put into the press
release:
"The speed, ease of use, and customizability of
AbiWord made upgrading our customers from Windows
desktop to MfxLinux Desktop a do-able task."
"AbiWord is directly invoked by our server application
for the users desktop and feeds the mail merge fields
from our Database. It's interface is easier to use
than Microsoft's mail merge, which consequentially
eased our customer's transition to the MfxLinux
Desktop dramatically."
"Support for AbiWord via the mailing lists and email
has been incredible! We have had bug fixes in under 24
hours...and you can't get that from Microsoft, even
*if* you paid through the nose!"
Here are a few quotes from one of the developers I've
been working with on the project:
"If you need quotes, I can give you a few, since I am
still impressed by AbiWord's speed and ease of use.
And our customers and trainers have said the interface
to creating mail-merge documents is head and shoulders
above the MS's."
"And personally, thanx for making a really kick-ass
piece of software that has made my life easier at
work, and that I use almost exclusively for my
personal desktop publishing needs."
<grin>
Cheers,
Dom
