'''If you use WPKG, we'd be glad to hear what you think about it.'''
Please specify on how many workstations you use it, with what type of network (Samba, Active Directory, mixed, etc.), and other information that you think could be useful.
Also, it would be interesting, although not necessary, to specify your name and/or country, company/university/school, with links etc.

We use WPKG on about 200 workstations, both with Samba and Active Directory. It is very flexible and saved us a lot of work. We don't use AD's built-in software deployment capabilities, because they were too limited and allowed only MSI installation - we use WPKG solely instead.

We use wpkg on about 100 workstations with Active Directory. It's really easy and flexible.

We are in the process of deploying WPKG on to a network of around 70 PCs: have been impressed by the flexibility that WPKG offers for determining which workstations get which packages. Very nice. -- [http://www.ceu.ox.ac.uk/ Cancer Epidemiology Unit, University of Oxford]

I just finished a project for [http://www.schongau.ch/de/bildung/schulenschongau/ Schule Schongau] in Switzerland. Here we manage about 15 computers using WPKG. All server-backend runs on Gentoo/Linux. In addition I implemented a linux-based RIS server (check out [http://oss.netfarm.it/guides/ris-linux.php Linux-RIS] for details, thanks to Sherpya). The installation is currently running on WPKG version 0.9.11-test1 directly accessing the configuration from WPKG-web. Through one single RunOnce entry it is possible to automatically install WPKG at the end of the setup process. After a restart it starts to deploy the software - very clean and smoothly.
