[Koha] How to handle the support providers list (was Re: Spam from BestBookBuddies (OpenLX))

[Jonathan Druart]

This already exists and is auto-generated for each release.
For 17.05, https://koha-community.org/koha-17-05-released
But, as said previously by others, 1 != 1 and there are much more than just
writing patches in a community daily tasks.

Regards,
Jonathan
