Well to be fair, first off you don't even make it clear in your advert that you're using FreeBSD, you refer to it as "a unix account" throughout and the only mention of FreeBSD occurs when you suggest that users who already have FreeBSD at home may be interested. Second, you're hardly "making them available" in the charity sense, you're selling them - this is clearly commercial use, and perhaps all this shows is that there needs to be a freebsd-advert list (or something suitably named) where people who truly want to read such things can subscribe. I would not be opposed, though it's more up to our postmaster. Jordan
