2 | GNU Service Directory | |
3 | --------------------- | |
4 | ||
5 | This is a list of people who have asked to be listed as offering | |
6 | support services for GNU software, including GNU Emacs, for a fee | |
7 | or in some cases at no charge. | |
8 | ||
9 | The information comes from the people who asked to be listed; | |
10 | we do not include any information we know to be false, but we | |
11 | cannot check out any of the information; we are transmitting it to | |
12 | you as it was given to us and do not promise it is correct. | |
13 | Also, this is not an endorsement of the people listed here. | |
14 | We have no opinions and usually no information about the abilities of | |
15 | any specific person. We provide this list to enable you to contact | |
16 | service providers and decide for yourself whether to hire one. | |
17 | ||
18 | Before FSF will list your name in the GNU Service Directory, we ask | |
19 | that you agree informally to the following terms: | |
20 | ||
21 | 1. You will not restrict (except by copyleft) the use or distribution | |
22 | of any software, documentation, or other information you supply anyone | |
23 | in the course of modifying, extending, or supporting GNU software. | |
24 | This includes any information specifically designed to ameliorate the | |
25 | use of GNU software. | |
26 | ||
27 | 2. You will not take advantage of contact made through the Service | |
28 | Directory to advertise an unrelated business (e.g., sales of | |
29 | non-GNU-related proprietary information). You may spontaneously | |
30 | mention your availability for general consulting, but you should not | |
31 | promote a specific unrelated business unless the client asks. | |
32 | ||
33 | Please include some indication of your rates, because otherwise users | |
34 | have nothing to go by. Please put each e-mail address inside "<>". | |
35 | Please put nothing else inside "<>". Thanks! | |
36 | ||
37 | For a current copy of this directory, or to have yourself listed, ask: | |
38 | gnu@prep.ai.mit.edu | |

48 | Altrasoft provides corporate-quality support, development and user | |
49 | documentation for GNU Emacs, XEmacs and InfoDock. (InfoDock is a turnkey | |
50 | information management and software development toolset built atop emacs, | |
51 | written by one of our associates.) Emacs distributions for a variety of | |
52 | platforms are also available, as is support for other emacs variants, such as | |
53 | those often found on PCs. | |
54 | ||
55 | Our unique focus on emacs-related work allows us to attract expert talent in | |
56 | this area to keep you on the leading edge of productivity, especially if you | |
57 | do software development work. We do the porting, patching, coding, | |
58 | integrating, debugging, documenting and testing so that your people spend | |
59 | much more productive time on their mainline tasks. | |
60 | ||
61 | Standard support packages include help on all aspects of the packages | |
62 | supported, including all tools shipped as a standard part of the original | |
63 | package distribution. In general, we want to give you an unbelievably strong | |
64 | level of support, so where we can, we will also answer questions concerning | |
65 | any add-on Lisp code that is used at your site. Setup and customization | |
66 | help, bug fixes, and announcements of new releases are, of course, included. | |
67 | ||
68 | Support rates start at $1,500 USD, for single user support for one year. | |
69 | Discounts are available for group contracts. We also offer Golden Support | |
70 | contracts for those who need the absolute best in mission-critical support; | |
71 | contact us for details. Hourly development rates and fixed bid work are | |
72 | available. | |
