Not only is it incredibly poor netiquette to post an advertisement to
Usenet, it is doubly so to post to *three* (were there others?) groups
which were created with the express charter that users post to the 
*single* most appropriate one of them--and recently created, at that.

While your product may be of interest to the programmers in this group,
it would have been more appropriate to simply post (to this group only)
a concise (read: a few lines) summary and some pointers to the whereabouts 
of more detailed information.

Kindly restrain yourself in the future.
