Hi Jacques
No worries - I can put it on my 'To do' list as it is related to some of the
work I'm already doing around the documentation tidy up - and our main
website was part of that.
Thanks
Sharan

It seems you have both good ideas, I agree!
This could be the references page I spoke and tried to do some days ago but reverted because indeed there are some rules to respect on me static site.
Will you handle it Pranay, Sharan?

Hi Pranay
I think that we may have some restrictions on what goes onto the OFBiz
website especially if it contains any external links (and references tend to
have links to the company website).
We could maybe look at doing a page with some quotes from the references /
user stories and then point it to the wiki page if people wanted to read
more.
Thanks
Sharan

Hi Jacques, Sharan,
Wiki is a good place to put user stories/testimonials but shouldn't we have
one page on OFBiz website for the same, WDYT?
