The article that Phil sent says:

    Librarians are not all strangers to open source, nor is this even the
    first open source ILS; the Koha ILS has been around for years. But Koha
    "wasn't built with the scalability or deep organizational hierarchy
    that PINES requires," says LaJeunesse. "It would work fine for a
    10-branch library system, but not for a statewide system."
