Description

@sitaramc

Please remove all mentions of both sitaramc/* and gitolite/* from your system. I do not endorse what you are doing.

Despite the disclaimer you added very recently, I consider your website/service/whatever quite misleading. Due to the lack of transparency (i.e., lack of "opt-in") and your apparent unwillingness to understand the concerns of projects owners, I have absolutelty no desire to have my name ("sitaramc") or my licensed trademark ("gitolite") be associated in any way shape or form with you, and I do not wish them to appear anywhere on your site except by way of resolving this complaint.

NOTE: GIT is a trademark of Software Freedom Conservancy and my use of "Gitolite" is under license. I do not know if the SFC will care but I can certainly forward my concerns to them and ask their opinion (and intervention, if they agree with me) if this issue is not resolved.

Bottom line: you used my personal name and a licensed trademark name without permission. Please don't think the GPL will get you out of this one; this has nothing to do with the code, and everything to do with people's and products' names and reputations. By all means have someone fork gitolite under a different name and do whatever you want, but don't use "sitaramc" or "gitolite" anywhere.
