Maybe a very minor point, but som= eone that is working for a company could Ack independent of the company if = so stated. Just be careful how you word the requirement, something like =E2= =80=98Only one Ack per company or independent developer=E2=80=99=20 As an open community, we should avoid sorting people per company. I prefer talking about different areas of interest. Anyway considering acks is a matter of confidence. We cannot have strict rules, but we can provide some guidelines.
