Someone asked this recently so it's worth mentioning again.
is it okay to post a message about our new product?
It's okay to post a short message about a new product with a link for
further information. I see this more as news than as advertisement.
Since it's news it should only be posted to the list once, and the
product should be directly related to color management on MacOSX or
MacOS9.
The flip side of the first question being...
is it okay to continually post how great my product is?
No. That's advertisement, not news. If it hasn't changed in a month
it's not news, and if it's already been mentioned it's not news. If
it's a lengthy discourse on the benefits of your product, chances are
it's advertisement, not news.
what happens if I post advertisement instead of news?
You get booted from the list.
