  No, you are wrong... from the AUP:

4.We do not allow SPAM on this news server. We will allow you to
post     
  announcements of your POV-Ray related web page, utilities, or
  programs that POV-Ray users may find useful. Advertising of
commercial         products or services not related to POV-Ray or the 3D
graphics
  industry is not allowed under any circumstances.

  Isn't this a "3D graphics industry" related announcement? And to my
understanding, I don't think David has abused here of his historical
fame. That's an extremely paranoid accusation...
