The charters of uk.comp.home-networking and uk.comp.homebuilt forbid
advertising.

Profuse apologies!

I had only checked the charter for uk.comp.training which, as posted to
the group by (E-Mail Removed) on 23/01/2005 00:58 states:-

uk.net.news.announce, uk.comp.training]

So, I wonder where the Demon bot keeps its version.

http://www.usenet.org.uk/uk.comp.os.linux.html states:-

> Advertising
> Short (<20 lines) announcements of events and advertising from manufacturers and resellers of Linux-related products (e.g. distributions) in the UK are permitted. Advertising aimed at a non-UK-specific audience is not permitted.



The charters of uk.comp.homebuilt and uk.comp.home-networking were last
posted on 19/08/04 (as per the webpages) and I should have done that
search this morning - Sorry!


Hope this will help to clear up the situation for others.

We're all trying to make a living. There are groups for discussions and there
are groups for advertising. If advertising was allowed in uk.comp.homebuild
then the quality of the advice would go down. Flaunting the rules does not
give the company a good impression.

Why dim wit? Plenty of people need that sort of thing.

What's wrong with it?

Granted, it may not be an appropriate newsgroup to market the idea, but
otherwise, good for him.

I hope he gets plenty of business.

Which exposes you as someone who does not check properly - not a person I'd
trust serious technical questions to.
