You have seen the email from Jacopo telling you why this can and should be 
revered.  If you'd like me to resend that again, I can do it - but this commit 
has been turned down by many other committers - not just me, Hans.  I have also 
modeled the appropriate behavior here on the Service Providers Page - that's 
the right place to point to your home page or your twitter feed - 
http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/x/jwBk - or really I would say it could just 
be on your own marketing material, but I was trying to compromise here.

Please don't get into a commit war - we've discussed this one to death and it 
was time to revert it.  This isn't about legal at this point - we have a place 
for this kind of thing and you having a twitter feed is not news - especially 
when the link is completely obfuscated to make it seem like it's a project 
resource. 

Again, as I've said in this commit message and on this list like a thousand 
times - once the PMC decides we need a twitter feed AND all committers are 
provided with the credentials AND we update the Bio and information to show 
that this is not a certain companies, but being done by all of us, then I for 
one and in favor of putting this back the original way you envisioned.  This 
has been echoed as something that many other PMC members and committers want to 
have happen - is this something that you are not in favor of any longer (that 
is following thru on the process of getting buy in)?

OFBiz having an official sanctioned Twitter feed IS news - can't wait until we 
get to that point - if that's what gets decided.

Cheers,
Ruppert
