The official blurb reads:
"In response to overwhelming interest and requests from the Joomla community, the Joomla Project is pleased to announce the Joomla Resource Directory goes online today at resources.joomla.org. If you’re a Joomla user, there’s no easier way to find developers, service providers, and other valuable resources."
If you have a Joomla-related business, I highly recommend you checking it out.
Its great to see Joomla.org supporting small businesses, especially in this economy right now. Thanks Joomla!
