[Typo3-marketing] TYPO3.com refresh references

[Daniel Hinderink]

Hi folks,

It seems you are both mixing up .com and .org.

On .com there are no other dutch consultancies listed but netcreators...
There are also very few educational references, but they are real.

Anyway, the listing on .org of consultancies and references has become
pretty useless, because of the lack of discipline (and decency, I might add)
that some of the users have shown and a lot of basic design shortcomings
too.

I am convinced there is no other way, but making a fresh start with some
long-term perspective, rather than feeding the dead horse we have in these
matters. We rather have to look at the bigger picture and get an idea what
we want to achieve with advertising consultancies and references in the
first place and consequently how this should work ideally.

This is something the respective committee has taken into their hands to
find real-world solutions for.
Eventually they will come up with a proposal for certification and this will
entail the end of the consultancy and reference lists as we know it.

Cheers

Daniel
