Re: [Consortium] Advertising Policy - linuxaudio.org

if i may: i share ico's sentiments expressed earlier in this thread, and also aymeric's wrt to advertising on the net. let's not go there. the whole thing is a bureaucratic nightmare and the prospective gains are in no relation to the pain. as an aside: even though i'm perfectly willing to accept patrick's judgment about the reputation of the company that is interested in advertising, i find this request in particular a bit shady: the page in question is totally obsolete, and to use it as an advertising platform just because of its search engine visibility seems a very questionable thing to do. SEO is (not only in my book) the second greatest evil on the net after spamming, and i'm totally opposed to supporting it or making any money off it. if there is any need for pocket money (and so far, this is what we're talking about), i'm perfectly willing to shell out, say, 50 USD a year to meet any operational costs of *.linuxaudio.org which are not covered by the donation of manpower or bandwidth from vt. best, jörn -- Jörn Nettingsmeier Lortzingstr. 11, 45128 Essen, Tel. +49 177 7937487 Meister für Veranstaltungstechnik (Bühne/Studio) Tonmeister VDT http://stackingdwarves.net
