<br>
Can we add a solidarity clause? Do we want to list support providers<br>
who are actively attacking our community through domain names,<br>
trademarks and legal actions? That sort of community-splitting tactic<br>
should have no place in the project, IMO.<br>
<br>
I move that any such providers should be suspended from the listing<br>
until they cease legal actions against other providers and offer<br>
domains and marks to the community in a FOSS-compatible way.<br>
<br>
Furthermore, I suggest that the vendors' site must link back to<br>
the community site, else their entry may be removed.<br>
<br>
I'm in no hurry about the link back, but the actions, domains and marks<br>
requirement seems pretty important.<br>
<br>
Comments?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
