It's always interesting to see what other states are doing with Open Source library systems.

For anyone going to this symposium, could someone ask how the business model of LibLime differs from that of Equinox? While both are OS companies, LibLime works to acquire sponsorships for development; I'm not sure about Equinox.

Thanks,
Deb Bergeron

Deb, I don't believe the models are different, though we don't use use
words like sponsorship or patronage. We develop open source
software. If you pay us for specific development, then you (through
us) develop open source software. Let me know if that clears things
up!
