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