Initially, the free entries should have been removed after 1/2 year and replaced by paying customer's entries only. This was the original plan, AFAIK. After another year, I was wondering, that my free entry still was on board and I kept quiet. In the meantime, I tried 3 times to get an error correction, even in ready-to-copy-prepared format, without success. Of course, I do not have any claims at all and I am pleased to be there. The only thing which makes me thoughtful is the fact, that adahome became more and more quiet. Since adahome is one of the first places to go for newcomers, which once had a 4-star price by magellan (fading now), I am really concerned now whether adahome might possibly do a counterproductive service to the Ada community? Presumably they may be suffering of man-power and/or (necessary!) sponsoring... -- Peter Hermann Tel+49-711-685-3611 Fax3758 ica2ph@csv.ica.uni-stuttgart.de Pfaffenwaldring 27 Raum 114, D-70569 Stuttgart Uni Computeranwendungen http://www.csv.ica.uni-stuttgart.de/homes/ph/ Team Ada: "C'mon people let the world begin" (Paul McCartney)
