When Ranjit proposed the directory saying that it would be based on Frederick's list, I thought he would be extracting the businesses and authors' information from that list and create entries of those businesses
It's actually both! Frederick's list had info on businesses as well as utilities/tools made in India and their authors. I didn't actually think of it as a directory that end users could utilize. A segregation of the directory listing on those lines would be great though. The current list names a product and its author; if there's a company involved, say Peacock solutions, that has also been listed with a link to its website. Maybe we should be listing the utilities out seperately and put up a business directory with a different set of information. I actually thought we would start off with a listing on the lines if the one at www.gnu.org. We do need a list for developers too don't we? And I think Khuzaima's argument is solid - I suggest we have two lists? What's one everyone else's mind?
