There are various groups doing this, just look over the list of live  
sites on the ofbiz.org home page to see them (like Xinit Systems,  
Ethical Shopper, etc).

Just keep in mind that people running such stores do not always have  
time to keep up with the mailing lists and answer questions that come  
along, so try to be reasonable with your expectations.... Software  
can be free, but as much as people like to help out when they can, by  
nature they aren't free.
