- GNU Service Directory
-
- This is a list of people who have asked to be listed as offering
- support services for GNU software, including GNU Emacs, for a fee
- or in some cases at no charge.
-
- The information comes from the people who asked to be listed;
- we do not include any information we know to be false, but we
- cannot check out any of the information; we are transmitting it to
- you as it was given to us and do not promise it is correct.
- Also, this is not an endorsement of the people listed here.
- We have no opinions and usually no information about the abilities of
- any specific person. We provide this list to enable you to contact
- service providers and decide for yourself whether to hire one.
-
- Before FSF will list your name in the GNU Service Directory, we ask
- that you agree informally to the following terms:
-
- 1. You will not restrict (except by copyleft) the use or distribution
- of any software, documentation, or other information you supply anyone
- in the course of modifying, extending, or supporting GNU software.
- This includes any information specifically designed to ameliorate the
- use of GNU software.
-
- 2. You will not take advantage of contact made through the Service
- Directory to advertise an unrelated business (e.g., sales of
- non-GNU-related proprietary information). You may spontaneously
- mention your availability for general consulting, but you should not
- promote a specific unrelated business unless the client asks.
