I am using SOUL version 1.0 for last 4 years and already entered 33,000 bibliographic data along with departmental libraries (inter library loan). If you need any help then please send me a mail. I am always ready to help others for the betterment of our profession and professionals.

It would be very helpful if you please post the procedure for Broadband dialup connection configuration in Ubuntu. If you have already uploaded it elsewhere then please let me know. I have gone through the following links: http://kohageek.pbworks.com/w/page/28248118/FrontPage and found many useful tips and tricks.

One more thing is that did you experimented with the data conversion from SOUL to Koha? Data conversion is the main thing which may encourage many librarian to opt for Koha when they will found that their previous initiatives also be used in the new system.
Thanks.

Now I am very much satisfied with your plan and procedure. You are right that many people initially shows their interest in it and after few days they do not bother about it. I shall try your documentation and will send my feedback also. Best wishes for the coming year 2012.
With warm regards,
Raja Biswas.
