Well then, let's leave it to Olivier's call to post it on our support page.

Olivier: just give me your decision, taking all of this into account. It 
sounds like we should also have a talk on what qualifies an organization 
to appear on our "Supporters" page and perhaps have a secondary 
"Supporters" page of some sort (maybe re-labelled differently than 
"Supporters") for cases such as these. BTW ... I went to the 
www.grupoinfoec.com website and could not find a single mention of 
"LibreOffice" on the site or any sub-pages -- maybe I missed it, I don't 
know.

Cheers

Marc
