Sorry Google and Yahoo? 2008, 2009 renewal done it seems. I am carefully looking the board meeting text. but somehow omitted
---- Plus, The problem is/was ... I have 9000 1st at linked in now. At first, I sent an invitation to all the apache folks (Some rejected "I don't know" -- I can not believe it. READ THE THANKS PAGE!!). and Gradually my 1st grew up. When I do the business in Linkedin, I message to specific area (recently, ASEAN). And not-intentionally, there are apache folks there. (Can you judge whether XX is apache committers or not when sending to 1500 ppl in ASEAN?) And 1 or 2 said that "You invited me (as apache) bacause you want to invite me to MLM business??" or some -- came as a message. I carefully selecting (around 2004 committers' name I remember), however, I can not do that at all. Those frustrations went to apa...@apache.org or p...@apache.org and misunderstandings happened I might guess. I think it would be loss for both.
