--sdtB3X0nJg68CQEu Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Thank you for your suggestion, we will not be acting on it. The specific link is to an article about FreeBSD which happens to be on a hosting advice website. If would be great if the website was accessible, but we're not going to reject publicity just because it is not. Substituting another hosting recommendation site would not serve the purpose and if the article appeared on another site that would almost certainly be the result of theft. -- Brooks On Thu, Sep 07, 2017 at 08:13:38AM +0000, Karla Wiese wrote: > Hi,=20 > =20 > I wanted to reach out to you one last time.
