Look at the file etc/SERVICE in the emacs distribution - there are lots of other consultant who will work on GNU software besides Cygnus. I'm not sure, but I think Cygnus is more oriented towards bigger projects like support contracts, ports to new machines etc. As the emacs distribution is currently a bit old, I think there's a newer version of the SERVICE file available on prep.ai.mit.edu, directory /u2/emacs/etc. //Jyrki
