>Yes, but who is the person or company aproving the vendors that apply to be listed- all of them?? No wonder it's taking so long .. :)

I think it normally takes a few days for this to be activated, regardless of the company/provider. The basic rule is, if the provider is part of the Fox community, being a provider is approved. As far as I know, every company requesting to be a provider to this date has been approved without issue. If someone from the Delphi community tried to join FoxCentral.net for example, it would be rejected. :)
