Paul,
Counting references to a word is hardly supportive of your argument.
Particularly when you consider that our first post was back in Nov-2011.
Including the subject line there are 8 references to BigFish in your one
email !
If I had mentioned a client implementation as a reference to how we had
solved something would you still be so offended?
I fail to understand why pointing out a reference where there is a
working demo and access to the source code is not supportive of the
community.

I have no problem with people advertising their own work - in fact, up to a
certain degree it helps the community. However, I think that the constant
promotion of BigFish has crossed the mark quite a bit and has come to the
point where every new member is getting greeted by a bigfish welcoming
message.
I am not trying to bash anybody’s work here, but merely pointing out that
the implementation of Bigfish is far from complete. It isn’t a simple
labeling factor either – it simply isn’t done in full. When a product
doesn’t deliver what it is supposed to do, it is false advertisement.
Again, I have no problems with anybody promoting its own work, but I also
don’t want people thinking that Bigfish = OFBiz, when in fact it is far from
it. A quick search on nabble reveals that there have been 242 references
towards bigfish, the majority being promotional. Sorry, but that isn’t
“rarely responding with BigFish examples” in my eye. So perhaps this can be
limited somehow?
