Thanks to Juan Conde we have a Junta de Andalucia quotation


Juan Conde, Chief Free Software Officer at the Junta de Andalucía:

"Guadalinex has been relying on GNOME since its very inception. We
currently have 600.000 desktops deployed in publicly-funded schools,
and are now working in a new corporate GNOME 3 based desktop called
GECOS (Guadalinex  Standard Corporate Edition) that is designed for the
everyday tasks of civil servants. GNOME 3 has been a big change for
Guadalinex and I am glad to see that GNOME 3.2 improves the CSS and
extension support to allow for easy user interface changes. For a
government,  accessibility is a must and Gnome provides it like no
other. Thanks Gnome."
