Thanks Stef for the nice words :) Maybe a first step which could be quite easy is to add a page of "Pharo associated consultants" or something like that in the Pharo website. Like the one we have now for contributors: http://www.pharo-project.org/community/contributors but for consultants. And each consultant can write a few keywords or small paragraph about their expertise.
