Our policy at Barcamp Bangalore is that any form of *advertising* from a
first-time poster is not accepted. Participation in any ongoing discussion,
or a new discussion that seeks opinion is welcome.

Since Barcamp is a general forum with no specific topic for discussion, this
policy helps filter out a lot of junk from posters who don't otherwise
participate, while keeping the list useful for those who do, including as an
advertising target.
