Some people on the list were not comfortable with the term "vendor" as
they don't use MW commercially, so third-party users seemed to be a better
name. Let me know if you have suggestions on how to make the list more
useful.
I cannot create a list that looks like advertisement and promotion of
vendors as it was discussed and decided in the past that no companies or
individual developers can be promoted or endorsed on
. You
can see the discussion here:
Again, let me know if you have ideas on how the list would be more
useful. I would gladly work on that.

By the way Mariya, why have the lists of vendors
and consultants
vanished?
Shouldn't the vendors page be re-created with only vendors? Discussion
on the discussion page and sites using MW on that page?

Shouldn't the vendors page consist

we're working in the similar area and can provide each other services,
outsource some tasks to each other, re-use the code, discuss the business
models. Why not to post these success stories on
mw.org to advertise
yourself and to make the market bigger and bigger?

similar project for the Russian school?

you have the open repository of your extensions and skin, I will try them
with pleasure. Maybe somebody will see that they can provide their
solutions, that are more sophisticated.
