[Koha] Request to add a new support company

[Radek Šiman]

Hi Mirko,

I'd like to ask you (and the community as well) whether the top-level 
domain koha.cz is a blocking condition to be enlisted as a paid 
provider. If yes, I will surely change it, but I like the simplicity of 
the domain (of course). I made a research few month ago and found 
koha.org (ie. LibLime), but decided to support koha-community.org clone. 
As some Czech libraries can confirm, R-Bit Technology actively 
participates in open source development of Koha extensions required in 
our country. So I don't think there could be a real problem, because our 
web koha.cz explicitly states the disclaimer at the bottom of every page 
and links to the Czech community as well as the worldwide one. In 
addition, it's no problem to extend the disclaimer above of something 
like "We are just a paid provider not an official one".

Ragards,
Radek Šiman
