The funny thing is that bigger companies - specifically including 
the 'moaning ones from the geo-industry' - are usually quite hard to 
get in contact with outside their regular streamlined business 
processes like web shops and sign up forms, for example via contact 
forms and published email addresses.

Of course big head at company A usually knows how to quickly get in 
contact with big head at company B, what really bugs them with OSM is 
that they are supposed to use the same channels as John Doe.
