Tom, please do what you can to not put words in my mouth.  Unless, of 
course, they're accurate?  I said I'm truly ambivilent on this issue of
posting shareware to Usenet.  As to whether or not this belongs here in
comp.sources.d or not, I leave that up to you:  note the followup. I
don't read talk.misc, btw.
