Yep, right off that url is what I meant.

Because I see the list as something that works against small companies,
rather than for them. As your experience would attest Indranil.
Not being on the list is used as a weapon against companies. 
So pretty much the exact opposite viewpoint to Brooke.

I see the list as just one more obstacle in a dev/vendor being able to
offer Koha support, rather than a help. Especially if as we are talking
about is making it harder to get listed. 

This will be my last email on it, and I will be talking to my colleagues
about having our name removed, and I hope the whole list and all the
problems it causes for new developers goes away.
