I somewhat agree with you. The reason I have for not discussing this further
is that there is no need until Kevin Loch indicates that he wants input from
others and is considering changing his own policy.
I agree totally with supporting someone else for a different web site. This I
am happy to discuss. As for support: I think discussing financial support can
also be important for the good of all of us. I do not believe that Kevin Loch
has ever asked for a dime from any of us no matter how much we use his website
resources. If anything, his time and effort are worth some monetary value.
