From a recent email from ASF:


{quote}V-a. Website branding compliance

IMPORTANT: PMCs who list "powered by" companies on their Project sites (organizations that are using your project --in their products/solutions or otherwise) MUST NOT BE DOING SO ON THE PROJECT HOME PAGE.

WHY: the ASF is strictly vendor-neutral. Listing company names and/or logos on a project's home page is disallowed as it can imply "ownership" or preferred status or otherwise imbalanced relationship. Whether this is the case or not, it is not acceptable. The policy is the same as "thanking" companies for their support of a project http://apache.org/foundation/marks/linking#projectthanks

WHAT WE'RE NOT SAYING: please don't misunderstand the "no third party logos on your homepage" policy. We *love* projects promoting their users! Many of you have commented that we always include user organizations in our press releases --one of the first things that members of the media and analyst community ask is, "who uses you?". We're proud of all our projects and your collective efforts: we want to ensure that everyone is being fairly represented and considered.

Some projects that are in violation are recent graduates from the Incubator and may not have ever been aware of this policy. Others are long-standing TLPs with refreshed Websites: perhaps there are new contributors who helped with the redesign and weren't aware. We understand that this action has likely been done in error, but needs to be rectified. Your "Powered By" listings can be on any page within your Project site but NOT the home page.

There are different ways you can recognize organizations that are Powered By Apache (YourProjectName) --here are some good examples:

1) Full logo -- Airflow -- http://airflow.apache.org/use-cases/
2) Shown with screenshots -- Flex -- http://flex.apache.org/community-showcase.html
3) Named list -- CloudStack -- http://cloudstack.apache.org/users.html{quote}
