In preparation for our call I wanted to dig up some more examples that we could look to and consider as potential models, like the FOSS4Lib site. If folks have a few min to give a very brief skim of these before the call that would be great, otherwise we can mull them over and add to the list for the future. I have also added these to the Wiki page for the Open Source Project: http://www.loc.gov/extranet/wiki/osi/ndiip/ndsa/index.php?title=Open_Source_Software Evaluating Open Source Software: Corrado, Edward M.
