What I can gather from this thread is that he, as a developer, might possibly have the right to speak on behalf of FreeBSD in regards to a sponsorship offer. On the other hand, you, who are neither a developer nor a core team member, do not. Not only that, the information is his reply is both polite and accurate where yours is not. From Boris's e-mail: > All financial contributors for the last three years are listed here: > http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/donate/sponsors.shtml Your reply to that was: > they request small logo/advert on main webpage. that's the > difference. And, of course, after rechecking the important bit from the original message: > What we ask for in return for our sponsorships is a short mentioning > on the site somewhere with a link to our website. It's obvious you misinterpreted it. They ask for a short mentioning **on the site somewhere** which is in no way, shape, or form the same thing as on the main webpage. In another reply in this thread you replied to someone saying: > again - this is your opinion. and IMHO resulting from you replying > faster than reading and understanding. You might want to go back and reread the original sponsorship offer post. It sounds like you are the one replying faster than you are reading or understanding. -- Kevin http://www.RawFedDogs.net http://www.WacoAgilityGroup.org Bruceville, TX Si hoc legere scis nimium eruditionis habes.
