Completely different story. Thymbra offers services around Tryton, as B2CK offers services about GNU Health, as both companies agreed and signed ( B2CK is at the GNU Health services site http://health.gnu.org/services.html ) Thymbra will never put an add asking for money to develop something. So, in the same way that I will never put an add like that in GNU Solidario site, I don't think that should be in the Tryton homepage. I would appreciate not to make public private documents between Thymbra and B2CK, less in a public mailing list. It is not professional.

That did not even pay the servers for 1 month. That is something that has to do with how B2CK deals with their marketing strategies. You can't blame me or the community for this.
I think that the Tryton foundation has to be independent from B2CK and the other service providers, and so it should the Tryton website. If we look for the promotion and protection of Tryton, we should not put these type of ads, asking for money to develop something. It goes against development of the system. Tryton main portal can not become a supermarket. We can (and should) place the names of companies that will provide service around Tryton.
