Technically you are correct and indeed there are no restrictions in the
charter either. However, I think the group is very much a part of the
open source community and anything that smacks of commercialism stands
out like a sore thumb. Large numbers of commercial ads could be come
very irritating indeed, but for now, I withdraw my remarks.
