Who are we? For whom are you speaking? I pointed out valid arguments.
There quasi is no difference between an announcement and an
advertisement. It already could become borderline to announce hardware
and software related news, about projects with financial interests, but
we shouldn't be more royalist than the king. Anyway, clothes have less
to do with the project at all.

It's completely irrelevant, if I would do or not.

That's correct, but you will not announce my business on the Ubuntu
website or a social media used by Ubuntu Studio.

If Ubuntu Studio does list artists and developers who contribute to
Ubuntu Studio and/or use it, the basic convictions of them are(more or
less) unimportant, unless they obviously offend the Ubuntu policy or
laws of free nations. This kind of anonymity is part of the FLOSS
attitude. If a company is selling clothes with the COF, then they are
free to do so, but it's questionable to announce this by an official
Ubuntu Studio channel.
