Well, if nobody else is being supportive of the idea, let me.  I like
having shareware come across.  If it looks good, I'll use it, and if it
still seems worthwhile, I'll pay for it.  I don't want to be deprived of
the opportunity of seeing shareware just because other people don't
want to see it.

/r$ has already stated his policy of not allowing shareware in
comp.sources.unix.  Clearly there's no way of preventing shareware in
alt.sources.  I don't know what Brandon's policy is.  So it seems clear that
if you don't want a feed that includes shareware, get comp.sources.unix
but don't get alt.sources.

But please don't prevent _me_ from having the opportunity to get shareware,
and don't try to prevent shareware writers from sending me their stuff via
USENET.
