Not a huge deal but this list is for developers of the xwiki project and you just happened to post on it and your first post is about something not related to xwiki, hence my reaction. This is my definition of spam == unsolicited email. If you want to act in true faith then don't send stuff to people that don't ask for it. Have some advertising on your company's tweeter, web site, etc and let people find you but don't push stuff to them, that's pure spam.
