That said, it's a service our clients are (strongly) asking for. We're not looking for a company to simply recommend, but one to partner with or become a reseller of. The goal is that the client maintains a single point of contact, us, and we pay a proper backup company for the support and service. -- Digimer Papers and Projects: https://alteeve.ca/w/ What if the cure for cancer is trapped in the mind of a person without access to education? _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
