Okay, I'm going to assume the message was inadvertent. I'm hoping
Harish has noticed that the app in question is spammy and has either
turned off that "feature" or stopped using it.
If it ever happens again, I'll email them directly and ask them to
please make sure their apps aren't spamming the list.
If it persists beyond that, I'll evict them.
The Ubuntu Code of Conduct demands that we be considerate. Considerate
both of our wish not to be subject to dumb app spam and considerate of
the fact that mistakes happen that are beyond our control.
So. Any more volunteers? :)
