From my knowledge of previous instances where the Self-Promotion rules were enforced, I got the impression it is only a problem when you are selling something.

And that merely posting about something you have created or written (which is freely available) is okay.

...

Someone created a paid program (for using the Kindle DXG as an E-Ink screen without VNC) and a free, open-source version. (After mention of the self-promotion rules, as well as the members' feedback regarding open-source preferences.)
A blogger who posted about his offsite review of the Voyage.

Both were okayed, IIRC.

...

@Blossom or @Dr. Drib,

Can you confirm whether that was a problem, or whether this isn't a problem, or whether there is a distinction I haven't noticed?
