I don't see where you are reading any rules regarding ethics?  The way I read his original charter, it sounds like they are focusing on discussion that relates to a particular culture and/or region.

As for the ads and donation buttons... to me this is just trying to limit sites that are *intentionally* for-profit.  I agree it could use some clarification to avoid future disagreements, but it doesn't sound like he is trying to limit donations to a website that are funding either the site hosting or a cause that the site is promoting.  Maybe Cedric can provide more clarification on this, and we can help suggest rules that are more specific?

I don't feel that enforcing a code of ethics falls in line with the opennic idea. What if they want to create a site against a government? Also nettiquette also says you can't type in all caps are you going to force domains to use a certain writing style? What about forums? Etc

I also very much do not like "non commercial" as it is too vague... can their website have ads?

>> Le domaine racine ".BZH" a pour ambition de fournir une alternative libre et gratuite d'enregistrement de noms de domaine Internet à forte identité régionale aux Bretons, Bretonnants et amoureux de la Bretagne, région Française bien connue. De même, les sites et services affiliés ou en relation directe avec la culture celtique sont les bienvenus. Les domaines ainsi déclarés doivent respecter un minimum de règles pour être éligibles à l'enregistrement sous .BZH :
>> - Promouvoir d'une manière ou d'une autre une activité, une communauté, un projet ou une intitiative à forte connotation Bretonne ou ayant des liens profonds avec la Bretagne, sa culture ou son histoire.
>> - Respecter la Netiquette ( http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nétiquette en Français ou la RFC1855 http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1855 )
>> - Assurer soi-même l'hébergement des sites, ressources ou services du domaine choisi.
>> - Ne pas utiliser le domaine choisi pour des activités commerciales.
>> - Ne pas utiliser la publicité éventuelle pour une quelconque forme d'enrichissement. Seul l'hébergement du site et son fonctionnement peuvent être ainsi supportés.

>> L'équipe d'administration du domaine racine ".bzh" assure le fonctionnement quotidien de l'infrastructure et fournira le support nécessaire dans les limites de ses possibilités (sur la base du volontariat) dans le mode best-effort. Aucune garantie de continuité de service n'est assurée, même si toutes les précautions seront prises pour éviter une rupture de service.

>> The ".BZH" root domain is committed to bringing an open free alternative in registering Internet domain names who carry a strong Brittany identity and any Brittany-friendly message or testimony. It also welcomes any Celtic culture related Internet domain name. The registered domains must respect some rules in order to be allowed under .BZH:
>> - to promote in any way a Brittany or Celtic-related activity, community, project or initiative or any of the previous carrying strong concerns about Brittany, its culture or its history.
>> - to respect the Netiquette ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netiquette or the RFC1855 http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1855 ).
>> - to ensure by themselves the hosting, resources or services of the chosen domain.
>> - not to use the chosen domain for any commercial activity.
>> - not to use advertisment for any kind of profit. Only the site hosting and maintenance costs can be covered by advertisement.

>> The ".bzh" root domain administration team will ensure the current infrastructure availability and will provide support at the best of its possibilities (based on volunteers best efforts). No service quality can be guaranteed in any way, even if all necessary efforts will be made to avoid any inconvenience.
