I'm afraid that I do not mind what licencing people use when promoting their
products, promotion of products should really go IMO in .marketplace where
it is appropriate and not .misc and .server where it isn't. It also seems

not in the technical sense of what sort of post can be cancelled from NNTP
groups.
