Quite so. Personally, I regard both the imposition of the text on my bandwidth and the implication that some company the other side of the world that I have nothing to do with can impose conditions on me as immensely arrogant. They're also - on a Open Source mailing list - contrary to the spirit of the list. IMO people who have no way to escape their company's imposition of them should either change companies or post from a private account. -- Phil Payne http://www.isham-research.com +44 7785 302 803 +49 173 6242039
