"How does it work?

People donate bitcoins to projects. When someone's commit is accepted into the project repository, we automatically tip the author."

Yes you are.

Could you add a few more words to explain your interpretations of those terms in practice here?

The rest of the folks in the thread and on the Github issue are exploring what those terms mean. I'm not seeing you provide much insight or rationale into your interpretations beyond a simple "No, we are not."

I might buy that you're not soliciting contributions on someone's behalf, at least in a razor-thin distinction kind of way.

But as much as I try to contort it, I can't see how you aren't accepting a contribution on someone's behalf.

How are we failing to make clear the reasons behind the reaction to your work?

How are we failing to make clear the various suggestions for making your work actually useful instead of potentially harmful to the projects you claim to be trying to help?
