Re: [MCN-L] Examples of augmented reality in museums

Agreed, seems thinly-veiled, and some advice to emerging vendors that this list 
is for informative, instructive advice or help. Not only that, but these kind 
of emails are likely to be counterproductive to endearing your services to this 
community.

I don’t know what others on this list think but this post seems like
blatant advertising? As a vendor myself I am very careful to only post
response to questions where we can add value to a discussion. I would hate
to see this discussion list to turn into a LinkedIn group ;-)
