Every time you send this out, over 500 people have to deal with an email that 
contains no information other than a link to a paid product.  Hardly in keeping 
with the spirit of an open source mailing list.  Like I said, share some 
knowledge and then advertise, that way everybody benefits.

Hardly, I'm just a fellow user of this mailing list voicing my concern.
