29  ABCL is being developed as open source. Each of the contributers
30  chooses his or her own priorities based on criteria like complexity
31  and time available.  Many changes implemented over the past years
32  were implemented in evening hours, limiting the size and type of
33  issue that can be addressed.
34</p>

36<p>
37  Your priorities, dear User, may not necessarily coincide with the
38  priorities of the developers.  To make sure your needs will be
39  addressed too, there is the option of paid support, usually in the
40  form of a consulting contract.  You may want to use this option for
41  example in case the 'regular' route (submission of a bug report or
42  enhancement request) isn't being addressed as quickly as you like.
43</p>
44
45<p>If you decide you want to use this option, or have other needs related
46  to ABCL, please contact one of the following individuals:
