Personally, I think it should be irrelevant to those seeking a vendor
too. If a vendor needs to should that loudly about what contracts
they're signing, rather than reporting afterwards in journal articles
and so on, then something seems a bit wrong to me. "X signed Y" is
not clear news - it might just mean X's sales/negotiators are good.
So, my view: let's try to make sure all company press release feeds
are on the koha blogs / Yahoo pipe feed and just link all that in a
side bar on the koha-community.org site.
Hope that helps,
