I agree, there is no such thing as an 'official koha support provider' or a
'registered koha support company'
All there is is a list of organisations who offer Koha support, and have
asked to be listed.

Luckily librarians are trained in researching and classifying knowledge, so
doing their due diligence should be nice and easy :)
