Now I think we're really getting somewhere: it seems to be that some confusion (definitely mine at least) stems from the fact of of who can actually grant that title. The example of I gave with Brett -- clearly the ASF community was the one bestowing that title. Now, quite contrary to the semantics game that Ross was playing with 'what is an official title anyway?' -- I'd say that at that point it becomes one of Brett's official titles. Which means that even if there's a *corporate* announcement of him doing an event he can be billed as: Bret, Developer at Apache Maven Can we agree on that? Thanks, Roman.
