You missed Larry's point. This list is about/for Linux & Open Source Hardware and Software. You posted a message about Baintree. When asked about why it was posted to this list, your response was about us meeting at Braintree. Larry's comment was a suggestion that, if your argument is sound, MT would be able to advertise on this list. Advertisements are */not/* to be a part of this list. Even if it's an ad for our host. I have nothing against Braintree or the IT Alliance, I do not want to read about what they are doing on this list, unless it's something about Linux and Open Source Software & Hardware.
