That depends a bit.
People generally don't sign up for a project marketing list to receive
marketing communication, they sign up to work on marketing for the
project.
Acme Corp sending a note to say "hey, here's how we used CloudStack"
that mentions their final product is great. A sales pitch, not so much,
even if it happens to use CloudStack (or whatever).

That certainly didn't help. But 0 mention of CloudStack plus pricing
information looks a lot like spam to me.

I think any offer or indication of a product or service that features CloudStack would be fine to the marketing list.
I think this set-off a lot of spam filters because their were 7 image attachments.
I think a plain text email is preferred since it's a mailing list.
I think it's cool that a CloudStack-based solution is being promoted here or anywhere else and we should welcome that.

No, I doubt anybody on this list is going to rush out and buy an instance from Ikoula. And I agree, that spam is a pain
But this is a *marketing* list - and I would love to hear more stories from folks doing things with Cloudstack; if that means hearing some of their gotomarket then so be it. Some will be good, some will be dull and a few may be great. We need to hear those great stories.
That email wasn’t sent from a DB, Anne-Claire sent it herself. I guess because she thought people may be interested (and I'm sure she also hopes that some of us may buy something or tell our friends to buy something) and has basically got a message saying "don’t do that again". IMO that is bad form, especially after I pointed out that they are active supporters of this community.
So, when Ikoula do announce their *great* thing - we wont hear about it.
A while back Anne-Claire sent a similar email (they had been graded as no2 cloud provider in France behind SomebodyiCantRemember). It, too, was just a piece of marketing from them
It resulted in this:
@Ikoula beat @Cloudwatt in EVERY ranking for French #iaas market.

So I like that they use CloudStack. I like that they are developing new services, based on CloudStack. I am just not sure how it's relevant in this particular venue.

So I like that they use CloudStack. I like that they are developing
new services, based on CloudStack. I am just not sure how it's
relevant in this particular venue.

If Ikoula wants to send us something that mentions what they're doing
with CloudStack, I'm fine with that. "Hey, CloudStack marketing - just
wanted to let you know we finally launched this service built on
CloudStack. Here's how we're using CloudStack in our service." Etc.
What was sent to the list doesn't even mention CloudStack and looks to
me like nothing but spam.
