<h1>W3C Spam Policy</h1>
</div>
<h2>Posting of Unsolicited Bulk E-mail (UBE), or spam is strictly
forbidden</h2>
<p>UBE or SPAM, as defined here will mean: <em>The mass
electronic distribution of unsolicited e-mail to individual
e-mail accounts, aliases, or mailing lists and archives.</em></p>
<p>Bulk distribution of unsolicited e-mail, or spam, is
always unwelcome to the participants of a mailing list, <a href=
"http://www.spamlaws.com/index.html">and possibly
illegal</a>.</p>
<p>As the fora hosted at W3C are focused primarily on technical,
operational, or communications issues, any commercial, religious,
political, or other off-topic e-mail is likely to be interpreted
as spam.</p>
<p><strong>Do not under any circumstance post spam to the W3C mailing
lists.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Violators of this restriction may be permanently
unsubscribed from all lists and banned from participation in any
W3C-hosted discussion forum. Their posts may be removed and stored
for further actions</strong>.</p>
<h2>W3C e-mail resources are strictly for use by W3C Activities,
staff, and correspondents</h2>
<p>W3C e-mail resources include staff e-mail addresses and
aliases, mailing lists, archives, and mail servers. These
resources are exclusively for use in the conduct of W3C-related
activities, communications, and other reasonable use as agreed
upon by the W3C staff. Misuse of these resources by anyone will
constitute unauthorized usage and will be carefully recorded and
examined.</p>
<h2>Posting of spam using the e-mail address of a W3C staff
member is fraud</h2>
<p>W3C staff are agreed in spirit and practice that the use of
their W3C e-mail addresses shall be limited to only those uses
agreed upon by W3C staff and management. Any misuse of W3C
addresses by non-W3C persons will be considered as fraud, and
will be carefully recorded and examined.</p>
<p><strong>Recorded abuses of the above described policy may result
in legal action against violators of this policy.</strong></p>
