Industry Analysts

When I worked for Gartner, I covered Enterprise Architecture. I am thinking about creating published research for Gigaom to slay two birds with one stone. Need insights into the following:

1. What organizations are using Open Source Industry Data Models in Financial Services specifically glue?
2. What would be required to encourage corporations using this model to encourage Gartner to directly start research in this area?
