As the keeper of the FAQs for comp.lang.tcl, I personally would love
for folk who publish CD-ROM's with the software generated by this
newsgroup to let me know the contact information where my readers could
get more info about your CD-ROMs.  Too seldom does a publisher think to
even mention in the newsgroup that they are including the software.  Perhaps
it is the specter of advertising - perhaps it is past experiences with
flames, or just an oversight.  But consider at least dropping an email
to a moderator, FAQ maintainer, etc. to see if there is interest in
at the very list an email address or land address where readers can get
info about related products.

Thanks for your consideration.

The task of an educator should be to irrigate the desert not clear the forest.
