Well, surely just the fact that more people will be using it, more
companies/government agencies will look at it due to compliance, (don't
know what you rules are over there), only problem I can foresee is that if
they're offering corporate support packages, they may not want to have to
support speakup, about which they know little or nothing, though maybe
there could be a job for someone *grin*

Cheers.
