[Koha] Koha support solutions from Nucsoft OSS Labs

[Harris, Gary, DCA]

Greetings-

I tend to agree with some of MJ's remarks, but I think vendors ought to respect one another's rights. This note may be considered spam as well, but let's keep vendor digs off the list. I'm outta here, but I hope Nucsoft responds directly to the Software Coop folks and not the list.

Thanks,
Gary

It might be an announcement, but it's not news or noteworthy.  From what I recall, these services aren't anything new or distinctive and have been listed on the various sites for some time, including the interesting US-v-India price differences.  (software.coop decided to price the same for our US customers, give or take exchange rates.)

As do most of the support businesses.  If each of us starts a thread each time we change some minor service detail or run a trade fair stand, this list will quickly become a cess pit of commercial messages and much less attractive to users.

Please, don't start polluting the communal well with spam.

Yes, and software.coop is at Co-operatives 2010, the UK's biggest and most influential gathering of co‑operatives, on Friday and Sunday, and you can book at http://s.coop/coops2010 but I didn't start a thread to post that.

What I mean is we're all doing events and stuff most months.  I think you should put it on your own website and mailing list and keep this list for Koha community topics instead of commercial adverts.

Thanks,
