Alexander Chemeris alexander.chemeris at gmail.comHI Harald, I appreciate your care about the community and I won't post anything related to our commercial activities to this mailing list from now on. But I should say, that I disagree with you in your assessment of my e-mail as spam. I always care about community and gauge all my posts from a user perspective, and I wouldn't classify this as a spam. My reasoning is as following: 1. If I'm a user of Osmocom, I'd be interested in meeting a vendor in person, given a good occasion. 2. If I'm a user of Osmocom, I'd be interested in announcements of new products, compatible with Osmocom (this is a general comment, unrelated to this exact e-mail). May be we should create a separate (low-traffic) mailing list for commercial announcements, related to Osmocom? That might be a useful way to promote a healthy ecosystem around it.
