[OSGeo-Discuss] Case studies for migrating to Geospatial FOSS?

After giving a presentation recently about Geospatial Open Source, we
were asked whether there have been any case studies on migration to
Geospatial Open Source.

The audience were very sympathetic to Open Source, but felt is would
be much easier to sell to upper management if they could draw upon
experiences of other agencies who have done something similar.

Can anyone point me to reports, or programs which have migrated from
ESRI/Oracle applications (ArcGIS in particular) to Open Source
equivalents?
