OK, but I don't put commercial software on my BBS.

I understand the concept, however, I don't support crippleware on my BBS.
Nag screens I don't mind, but time limited useage products I don't carry.
I don't mind commercial products either, like TSE pro and QEDIT/2, but I
don't carry them here for people to D/L. If you want free advertising and a
free distribution channel, then you gotta bite the bullet. You won't get
your cake and eat it too at this BBS.
TANSTAAFL is the motto at Jack's Free Lunch, and most of FIDONET for that
matter.
