I suspect that the reference to a post from a software company is referring to a post I made on Monday on a thread started by Hilary Hurwitz with the subject "Z/OS Newbie question".

The OP was looking for a facility that would provide "a list of modules used and which libraries they were taken from". Gerard Postpischil replied with "The short answer to this is that it's not possible." Since we have a product feature that provides this very function, I felt that it was relevant to provide the information, and I marked my post as a "shameless plug", since I was mentioning a feature of one of our products.

I have already communicated with the owner of the listserv on this matter. Nevertheless, if members of this listserv believe this post to be inappropriate, I will not make any similar posts in the future. My intent was to inform, no to offend.

I'm with you, Mace.  I don't mind Shai's posts.  In fact, when the brown 
material started coming into contact with the oscillating air movement device, 
I had to go dig through my deleted messages to figure out what was happening.  
I didn't notice the post from the software company, but one of the people 
complaining about Shai's posts is being caught by an outlook rule I have set up 
and his messages are trashed.  If he doesn't want to see Shai's posts, maybe he 
could set up a similar rule.  :-)

I am more of a question asker or lurker than a contributor, but I am going to
give my $.02 anyway.

If you look at the op they are from a major software firm, unless it is
Scandinavian Airlines.

So to me it is a bit of sour grapes. If they felt there was/is a problem they
should have addressed it with the mod or the offender. Then one other poster
complained ,couldn't even name the product and Alan gave an opinion.
For a total of 2 ½ (I'll give Alan an assist...lol)

So the way I see it, is the majority of the posters have no problem with what
Shai is doing. I have thought of downloading the product and testing it.

<rant on>This is American society today, a few don't like what the majority
are doing and complain.
Let's set up frivolous law suites to stop the majority, or complain so the
majority must change<rant off>

Anyway, here is a solution, if you see him posting DON'T OPEN THE TREAD,
there problem solved.
