Everyone does, don't they? A search on Nabble shows up regular postings from XLSolutions, Mango used to post (not seen anything in a while) and Revo sneak the odd commercial in Dave Smith's updates. I don't see anything about non-commercial postings being banned from R-help, but they do seem to be against the spirit of R-help. I suspect commercials sneak in under under 'announcements' in the R-help documentation: R-help: "The ‘main’ R mailing list, for [...] announcements (not covered by ‘R-announce’ or ‘R-packages’, see above)" As with everything R, if it bothers the maintainers, then they'll put a stop to it. We users matter not...
