I am VERY offended by you making such requests on this public mailing list. In my opinion, the phrasing makes it easy to believe that the ASF is promoting, or at least associated with, the luckystars.jp game - which is not true, as far as I know. It would be ok, in my opinion, if you said something like "me, Tetsuya, would like people to participate in the luckystars.jp game, and if they do, X% of the earnings will be donated to the ASF". That would make it clear that this is your own initiative, while avoiding any unclear official association with the ASF. I know you've been an ASF sponsor, and that's very cool. But even sponsors are not allowed to associate the ASF with any event, game or aynthing without explicit permission from the PRC (p...@apache.org). Everybody has to play by the rules. -Bertrand --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: community-unsubscr...@apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: community-h...@apache.org
