Confirmed as dead: website is 500, and the phone number listed goes
to some other company entirely. Deleted.

> http://www.gishosting.net/
Website is merely a directory listing of an Apache 1.3.41 server.
Phone goes to a what appears to be a private voice mail box.
Unactivated, but not deleted.

I also removed these:

http://www.adventconsultants.com/
Redirects to a wiki about 'Fire safety building' in some other language

http://www.develix.com/
Page is "service unavailable" (and has been over a month)

http://www.intointernet.com/
Site is unreachable

Software Research Associates of America
Site unreachable; confirmed they are not doing PG support

There are many others that are extremely dubious on that page. For example:

http://www.travnet.org/
Which says: "Welcome to travnet.org wiki hosting. This page was put up as a
place holder until I can get around to making a real site."

There are plenty of others that claim support but are hosting only, and
many that have no mention of Postgres anywhere on their site. Time for
a house cleaning?
