All,
I know this has to be created and managed somehow, but here are some
ideas on this:
* Could there be some way of collecting business information related
to not only OpenSource software but also a means for companies to
describe themselves in their own words, even as it pertains to
non-open products, as these are often a concern when bidding on
projects.
* A simple one pager type of thing, listing software (open and
proprietary, possibly with the Open source stuff highlighted and
linked) and a general company resume, maybe even including a link
section for past projects.
* Inclusion of the prospective company logo on the profile page.
* A list of company partners.
* It would be real nice as a company owner for example, to be able
to link directly to a OSGEO "support" registry page. I think a
system like this would keep things updated regularly. I keep
forgetting the entry is even in there for my interests because I
don't touch it enough.
Bob,
I really think those who register as service providers should just
make an effort to provide the above details as they see fit on a
landing page on their own web site. It feels like you are trying to
overcomplicate what is actually kept track of in the registry.
Best regards,
