Thank you for your show. I appreciate you taking the time to respond, but do need to clarify some points.

The first classic mistake is that people confuse marketing and sales. Marketing is about finding the value proposition behind a certain product and finding the right audience who would benefit from it. It&rsquo;s not about pushing a product or selling adds. It&rsquo;s about telling the story of &lsquo;free software / the small web / open source &hellip; what have you&rdquo; to people who don&rsquo;t know about it and would benefit getting to know it. 

At no point in time did I say we needed to chase popularity, controversy or propaganda. At no point did i say we need to monetise HPR. I am saying we need to speak about the VALUE of HPR to people who benefit from it and give everyone a simple way to interact to further engage in the value of building a community.

Ps: Your comparison between a marketeer and a drug dealer to me, feels a little naive and quite offensive. Stallman &ldquo;markets&rdquo; free software too, remember ?
