We've had some great feedback on the Business Case document. Thanks to
everyone who made a suggestion.

Recapping...

+ Set up a To Do list
+ Set up a means to facilitate Localisation
+ Some unfortunate typos (how can that be!!!!)
+ Colouring the SQL part of PostgreSQL differently is not good.
+ Include Australian reference sites such as Hitwise
+ Include reference to New Zealand Electoral Roll case study
+ Rethink the line "Stop paying for software modules you don't need".

Looking forward to version 2 already.

Thanks again,

Liam.
