So if I am selling a set on my site, I can't post to .bst by both of your
modified charters, right?

As I read it, my post would be correct under Cary's modified charter, but
not under Larry's. Larry's seems to only allow discussions, right? No
announcemnts of any type except "Brickbay is down..."

Again, under this modified charter my post would still be appropriate. I
guess it depends on your definition of "Retail" or "Commercial" online
shopping. I see my site to be just as valid as any other online store,
albeit my stock is more limited.
Comments please...
