Personally, I think *any* regular posting of the same information to this list should be considered abuse. By its very name, this list is supposed to be for "opportunities". It is not a marketing venue, it's a mechanism for sharing and discussing new ideas. Todd is not asking for feedback or discussion, he's just using us as an easy spam target. Mail like his is precisely why I pay so little attention to the OpenSRS bizops list.
