1.1 root 1: GNU Service Directory -*- text -*-
2:
3: This is a list of people who have asked to be listed as offering
4: support services for GNU software, including GNU Emacs, for a fee
5: or in some cases at no charge.
6:
7: The information comes from the people who asked to be listed;
8: we do not include any information we know to be false, but we
9: cannot check out any of the information; we are transmitting it to
10: you as it was given to us and do not promise it is correct.
11: Also, this is not an endorsement of the people listed here.
12: We have no opinions and usually no information about the abilities of
13: any specific person. We provide this list to enable you to contact
14: service providers and decide for yourself whether to hire one.
15:
16: Before FSF will list your name in the GNU Service Directory, we ask
17: that you agree informally to the following terms:
18:
19: 1. You will not restrict (except by copyleft) the use or distribution
20: of any software, documentation, or other information you supply anyone
21: in the course of modifying, extending, or supporting GNU software.
22: This includes any information specifically designed to ameliorate the
23: use of GNU software.
24:
25: 2. You will not take advantage of contact made through the Service
26: Directory to advertise an unrelated business (e.g., sales of
27: non-GNU-related proprietary information). You may spontaneously
28: mention your availability for general consulting, but you should not
29: promote a specific unrelated business unless the client asks.
30:
31: Please include some indication of your rates, because otherwise users
32: have nothing to go by. Please put each e-mail address inside "<>".
33: Please put nothing else inside "<>". Thanks!
