Hi Carl,
None the less it is still a testament to the caliper of people that hang out on this list. If the engagement is free, I don't see the harm, but hey, its not my list and David is King.
It's not free, but I don't think that's really the issue, the cost is very minimal. This is only one of the 6 speaking engagements that I currently have planned for this year. And I'll doubtless have more before the year is out. And I don't speak that often by comparison to several others that are on this list. Every iSeries users group is a not-for-profit organization, but there are quite a few of them, and most have monthly meetings that include a speaker. Imagine the volume of posts!
Or take it a step further and imagine what would happen if everyone was allowed to advertise here. Every vendor who had a new product, or had a promotion for an existing product, was posting it here? And every speaker in the iSeries community posted every event here. And every user group (remember, this list is used all over the world) posts their events here? Wouldn't that degrade the value of this mailing list?
It would be really cool if David made a rule that said "Scott can post his stuff here, but nobody else can." That would be great from my perspective -- but I might be a little biased :)
