Well I have changed the name. Now it is "Linux audio professional support & contacts database". I would prefer to keep it as one page just to make things easier for me to manage. While I would love for this site to become extreemely popular and require serious commitment I am pragmatic that this probably won't happen in the next couple of years. Splitting the page up at this point seems like more work than neccessary.

I'm working on adding these things now.

I thought about that but I decided multiple lines provides more scope for presentation purposes. I expect people to eventually treat it similar to an email signature.

Being on stage with the band in front of crowds shouting, "Get off! No! We want normal music!", I think that was more like acting than anything I've ever done.
