Hi fellow dev@ people, We've been discussing the possibility of adding a page where third parties can get a mention if they support or do consulting on Apache Traffic Server, in the hopes that people seeking professional help can find it. As such, I have made a draft of a page that does just that, as well as reached out to the TS community to gather names of companies and individuals that do this sort of support. We have currently received the names of three companies offering professional support for ATS, and these have been put in the draft.
The draft can be found at: http://trafficserver.staging.apache.org/assistance.html Anyone wishing to be on that list can get there by writing to dev@, stating their name, web site and a possible logo (which we may or may not use in the future). Anyone can apply to be on the list, no favouritism will be shown to any companies or individuals, nor will we endorse or highlight anyone in particular, as per the PMC branding guidelines of the foundation[1][2]. Any companies or individuals using this list to promote themselves by proclaiming the link to be an endorsement or affiliation will be removed promptly. If you have any questions or doubt about the branding responsibility of the PMC, please refer to the general trade mark policies of the ASF[3] or via email to tradema...@apache.org (or in a reply to this email, naturally). Now, without further ado, on to the exciting part; The vote! [ ] +1: Establish a list of third parties offering assistance [ ] +0: Meh [ ] -1: Don't establish such a list, because... The vote is open for the standard 72 hours, standard consensus rules apply, and although this is a public discussion, only members of the PMC may cast binding votes, as the responsibility of such a page ultimately rests on the PMC. All other parties are of course welcome to weigh in with their opinion - in fact, we encourage it! Should the vote pass, we will publish the page on trafficserver.apache.org as well as add a link to it in our navigation. With regards, Daniel.
