I think that Shai might want to consider a user group in Yahoo or Google.
Not only could the technical merits be discussed but users could discuss
their usage/problems with other users and benefit from mutual MFNet
discussions.

Subject: SV: Ads on IBM-MAIN
As always the complain thread exceeds the eventual ad thread by several
magnitudes...
Nevertheless, as I see it, the purpose of "forbidding" ads has the purpose
to minimize "clutter/spam" in the list - for the benefit of the members.
And maybe also to minimize confusion of newbie's.
In practice I have never been irritated (or confused) by the eventual ads at
this forum, they have been relatively very few.
Someone said that he fears that the list would be cluttered by technical
questions and answers for products. Does that also e g include Yeager's
answers to DFSORT questions ? Or is IBM as a software vendor excluded in
this matter ?
