Talking about promotions and > such things why not, but definitively not about marketing I don't see what's wrong in trying to promote a project you are involved in and spent a lot of your time to make grow. If you think Linux didn't use any marketing strategies to get to the situation it is now, then you have missed something. Does the sentence "release early, release often" means something to you ? Well, that's marketing. IMO, your vision of marketing is a bit outdated. If you have a good marketing for an open source project, then you have more chances to see skilled developers come by and help you developing it. And this is good for your project. Quality and marketing are often related. And promotion is marketing. Bertrand Mansion Mamasam
