Hi Waldo,

Thanks for your valuable effort in improving KDE::Enterprise.

Ok, I see the reason to use something different compared to plain "KDE 
Enterprise".

IMHO "KDE::Enterprise" is imho not so great though because business people 
might think that it looks like a spelling / typo issue.

Maybe we can ask some artists about an KDE Enterprise logo, name and subline?

Good, maybe using common sense would be good enough initially before we start 
the time consuming process of establishing an ordinary review process.

The following URL is about businesses offers for KDE employment:

http://enterprise.kde.org/bizdir/searchforcountry.php?country=Germany

Using [View BizCase] is also incorrect in this context.

Proposal: Use different wording.

http://enterprise.kde.org/bizcase/
"biz case" should be renamed to success stories
View [View this BizCase!] should be renamed to [View Details]

http://enterprise.kde.org/bizdir/
Search by Type should have the number of entries in brackets similar to search 
by Country.

http://enterprise.kde.org/bizdir/searchfortype.php?type=XXXX
 [View BizCase] should be renamed to [View Details]
