Jacques is correct when saying 'it's a kind of marketing of OFBiz' when he talks about the images at the top of the home page of the OFBiz site. This holds equally true for referring to users and OFBiz integrators on the homepage. In stead of burying links to sites of users (let's face it: these are businesses) and system integrators/implementers deep in some wiki page, the higher these are ranked in the site (closer to the home page) the better it is for the site.
Several subject matter sites regarding the topic of outbound linking state that outbound linking has a positive effect for the site that provides the links. And in this case of the OFBiz project it will lead to higher ranking when persons search for any of the keywords in the homepage. Thus leading to more traffic to the site, and hopefully a bigger community.
