for example, we could provide some level of commercial

audio stuff from CSIRO, but we could only focus on a small domain (MPEG
audio, vorbis, sweep, and custom engineering related to analysis) and can't
possibly list ourselves as providing general Linux audio tech support.
We're primarily a research agency and any external work we take on needs to
be somehow relevant to our projects.
I'd imagine there'd be a large number of people who similarly wouldn't be
willing to list themselves for general tech support, due to only having
limited skills or interests, or simply for commercial reasons.
Conrad has made a good case for providing a column to list the skills,
specialities of each supporter/company. Only I cannot decide on the best
word to represent that. Any suggestions?
