That would be great, and then maybe this list could be about distribution instead of people asking for permission. We really need to explain how Open Source software works to distributors. The only mail we seem to get here is people unfamiliar with OSS distribution. One technical request: Can we *please* make the distributor lists appear in random order. It is really annoying with a company name at the end of the alphabet. We hardly get any referrals because people do not even get to our listing. Meanwhile companies who use a name beginning with numbers and "AAAAA" are at the top of the page. I looked in my local hardcopy yellow pages, and those companies are now actually treated as spamming the directory. They are placed at the very end of the directory, after Z. I don't think that is necessary, use whatever name you like, but the order should be random on each page load to be fair to all distributors.
