If this is so disturbing why are you just flaming about this now?
Seems to me that it's been well over 6 months since the announcement
that this 'value-added' service would cost money.  

In your letter you imply that there is a better solution, but don't
discuss any alternatives other than a few brief blurbs about
regional server machines.  Couldn't you think of any or were you
just venting steam? 

I haven't seen many real flames about the 'Map Project', and since
a lot people on the net seem to flame at the slightest provacation 
I have a hard time believing that your opinions are the majority
opinion.  

But hey, this net is an anarchy, so go off and find your own way to
fix the problems and implement them.  Noone is going to stop you.
If you can find enough sites with enough money who are willing to
spend a lot of time to change things - go for it.  Of course, you're
the one who doesn't have enough time to install news version 2.11, so
good luck!!!!
