I'm forwarding this email - for those of you who would be willing to spend a
few minutes to put some comments about what you think of Expresso on
osdir.com (an open source directory).

Hi folks,

This is a quick email to let you know that we've changed the approach that
OSDir will be taking to get people to try open source.

This is outlined at http://osdir.com as well.... Anyhoo, the new concept is
based on hearing from the users of apps.  After speaking with many many many
folks, the general feeling is that you and us claiming that your products
are stable are nice & all but people want to know what the users think, and
that people get others excited about trying new things not a list of data.
So we're putting that front and center.  While we're at it we want to hear
why they like them, aside from them being stable.

We hope you'll continue to join us in trying to inspire people to try and
use open source apps.

As always, thank you for your continued support.
