I'm not planning on moving anybody from Groupwise.  What I want to do is offer 
something that is pretty good and does the job for a 6 to 10 person office.  I think 
PHPGroupware could be very nice for these people who don't have anythng else, but need 
some "social" software to smooth their business out.
