[Koha] Request for registering as a Koha Support Company

[Purab Gujar]

Hi Indranil,

Thank you for pointing out the message in our document and I do agree the
message needs correction. That said, an intended FUD it was not! :) I will
pursue the correction immediately.

Also, please note that we have not forked out Koha. C-Koha is basically a
cloud hosted service of Koha. We also have added  javascript changes that
simplify the UI as what we feel will make Koha more accessible for
Libraries in our region. The possibility of adding js files is provided in
Koha and from our experience with the community so far, I believe use of js
files is not discouraged.

Thanks for taking a look!

Best,
Purab
