Athens2004 link policy

Some people still don't seem to understand this whole inter-web thing...

ATHENS 2004 Organising Commitee for the Olympic Games -Website Hyperlink Policy [from Due Diligence]:

By introducing a link to the ATHENS 2004 official Website on your site you are agreeing to comply with the ATHENS 2004 Website General Terms and Conditions. In order to place a link embedded in copy interested parties should:
a) Use the term ATHENS 2004 only, and no other term as the text referent
b) Not associate the link with any image, esp. the ATHENS 2004 Emblem (see paragraph below)
c) Send a request letter to the Internet Department stating:
Short description of site
Reason for linking
Unique URL containing the link (if no unique URL than just the main URL)
Publishing period
Contact point (e-mail address)

Once the request has been mailed, interested parties can proceed to include the link and will only receive a response if ATHENS 2004 does not accept the link.

Oh yeah, the IOC banned blogging [/.] too. How are those ticket sales, again?
