So that means if said support company creates packages for its customers it
should be on the packagers list? After all anyone could get the packages from
that company, couldn't they? Is there a any description as to who is eligible
for the packages list? And of course I take it there is a code of conduct for
this list, albeit Heroku didn't honor that one.
