Sumon, I think that you do not understand the perception of spam in technological circles. Today, there is no way to initiate contact with a business offer via email. None. All email solicitations are unwelcome. I tell you this to help you. I do not know if you receive 5000 spam messages a week like I receive, but know that a sizeable portion of the Python list gets considerably more. These people hate spam. > We're programmers like yourself, trying to build something that provides a > lot of benefit. You can see our intentions are genuine (and our python ad > server was fun to build) Actually, I am not a programmer by trade. I learn python for fun while I study mechanical engineering. I read the python list for the wisdom that passes, and rarely post. > So while i appreciate your response, it was never my attention to be > "spammy" I recognized that from the beginning, and stated that in my original post. Which should have been kept private between us, now I realize.
