Are there any companies or individuals that provide (for profit)
services for GNU products beyond alternate distribution media?  For
example, is there anyone who makes part of his/her living by
installing GNU products at client sites, perhaps on a consulting
basis?  What sort of further support do you offer after the
installation?

No, we don't need such services here, but I'm curious whether GNU
products have reached that sort of status.

I've looked through etc/* and can find no mention of anyone other than
various places to get GNU stuff via FTP and UUCP.
