This comment from a related thread strongly suggests that there was an
explicit design intent to create a bias against certain
commercialization practices. 

Following up someone's private whine, I moved the rest of the email to a
blog entry, as cited earlier. I'm slowly changing my personal behavior
to see if I even can leverage blogging.

So here goes. Let me know by email here which community customs I've
broken, even when communicating via a private blog. No doubt there will
be many rule infractions, initially.
