Who’s using Bedework? – You tell us
On the new Bedework presence on the Jasig website, http://jasig.org/bedework, we have adopted the Jasig project convention (as per CAS and uPortal) of allowing those of you who have deployed Bedework to share the details of your deployment.
On the Bedework.org site, we maintained the who's who’s using list ourselves, largely through Google searches and mining the Bedework mailing lists. This was certainly more work for us, but the real problem with this approach is that it is not nearly as effective as having the deployers themselves tell their story in their own voice.

Contegix will be providing hosting and managed support of the Jasig Internet infrastructure. This will allow the organization to focus on its core business – the development of their software products and support of the growing community. The new Jasig infrastructure is built on Contegix's Contegix’s stable platform and is fully managed 24x7 by Contegix engineers. Thus, it will greatly reduce the time spent doing troubleshooting and support internally.
"A few years ago, many people still questioned the use of open source software in higher education," says Matthew Porter, CEO and Co-Founder of Contegix. "Organizations such as Jasig are showing that through collaboration amongst institutions and commercial parties, open source software and related projects can enable future advancements in the higher education environment. Jasig's Jasig’s projects enable many global educational institutions to benefit from the contributions of a highly technical community and we are proud to support this endeavor."
