I am personally against advertisements on watir.com, because I think it
defeats the whole purpose of creating a kick-ass open source tool, if your
main site for it has advertisements for commercial/proprietary automated
testing tools (wasn't watir created to avoid using vendorscripts?)

Why is this thought even being raised? Are we short of money or something?
What are the big costs we need money for? The current web site is hosted (by
wordpress) for free...

Even if we wanted to run ads on watir.com, we can't because we're using
wordpress.com. We would need to migrate the blog to our own host and then
pay hosting costs. It's a bit of a wasted effort in my honest opinion.

I look forward to hearing others thoughts on this matter.

Cheers,

Alister
