[QGIS-Developer] Visual Changelog: ready? Move to Website? Or Not?

[Vincent Schut]

Hi,

don't know if this is the right place to ask, but:

Last year we (satelligence.com) sponsored the 'discrete raster styling' 
work by Nyall (https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/4308) with €1500. I 
don't see a direct mention of that PR in the visual changelog, however, 
I do see a lot of company logo's :-) Would our contribution allow for a 
mention either as a sponsoring company at the top of the page, or could 
someone add a small section about the new feature and add us as a 
sponsor there?

Thanks!, and please let me know if you need any more information or 
action from our side.

Vincent.
