It would be interesting to consider to what degree a service like this can be used by the broader AOO community. Maybe one way to think of it is this: -- We are currently comfortable have a webpage listing consults who offer services to users related to OpenOffice. We don't endorse them, and all transactions are between the consultants and their customers. The ASF is not involved. -- It would be analogous to offer a similar link to a crowd-funding website, with no endorsement, but as a service to the ecosystem. Also, all transactions are between the developers and the users. The ASF is not involved. Thoughts? Does anyone have experience with services like these? -Rob
