Hrm, I guess Luk missed (unless I am missing something here):

http://www.debian.org/consultants/#policy
 If you wish to have your company added to this page, please mail any of
 the following information in English to [email protected]

http://lists.debian.org/debian-consultants/ :
 Debian consultants, paid support
 Communication among and about Debian consultants.

i.e.: [email protected] is not solely for the
maintainers of the consultants page.

Bye,

Joost (who'd like to see the list kept)
