I'm not convinced of the usefullness of doing that; if you look at all
the distros which are above smgl, you'll realize that only a few are
listed on the maintainers' pages: it's usually Debian, Mandrake,
Fedora/Red Hat, and Gentoo.
Yopper, Vector, Archlinux, yellow dog, Conectiva, etc... all of them are
above smgl in rank though I don't think they advertize like you propose
to do.
Besides, I think it would be nice to see links to smgl appear
here and there only because people and maintainers tried smgl and liked
it, not because we asked them to do so. To me, a distro have to earn its
fame by itself, not be advertised like a commercial product.
Yeah, I know, I would suck as a seller.... ;)

Cheers,
Mathieu.
