Really, Raul? Are you really accusing people like myself (I'm a senior technical editor of the #1 magazine in the IBM i industry) of taking bribes from vendors?

You think I only recommend stuff because I get a "juicy commission"?

Frankly, I think if you do a little more research, you'll find the opposite to be true. I almost never write about commercial offerings (except RPG and IBM i, which define our community, and so must be included.)

I'm forever posting articles that show people how to use open source instead of commercial alternatives. There are several commercial solutions for creating Excel documents, and here I am supporting a free one in my own spare time. There are several commercial solutions to connect to external databases like Oracle or SQL Server, yet I publish and speak about solutions that let you do the same thing for free as open source.

I sympathize with you if you aren't happy with your government. But what does that have to do with this discussion or mailing list?
