Hey all,
Lots of these notes today. Sorry about that, as much has happened that I
didn't expect.
Anyway, here is the latest message to come out of Adbot. I wanted to draw
special attention to it because:
1.) there are several people on the list that have business dealings with
Adbot, and
2.) it was written under the direction of Jim Frith himself.
Unless something drastically changes, this should be the last update
regarding Adbot.
