Urgent: Organizations using open source

[Sufyan Kakakhel <sufyan.kakakhel@gmail.com>]

We (Open source resource center of Pakistan )just came to know about a
 government project of automation for which a government department
was about to buy proprietary software worth Rs. 10 million.

We interfered, and requested the ministry to stop the procurement
process, and go for an open source operating system and office suite,
The member IT, a pro open source official directed the said department
to adopt open source solutions to the maximum possible extant.

The said department is hesitant and putting different objections.
Now they say, please give us some success stories of some
organizations where open source (linux as operating system) has been
deployed on desktop level.

Any one of you, who is aware of any such organization please forward
me the names of organizations, with a contact point, phone numbers/
emails etc. ASAP..
