Commercial! You have got to be joking. This is something I put 
together for my own use and I thought others might be interested. I 
really don't see how this is different from Keith selling KAT5's or 
Frank selling FIRM's or Ian selling his Relay boards. In every case 
this is something that an HA enthusiast has developed for themselves 
first and then offered to others.

Not good netiquette! This is a friendly email group, if you want to 
play these sort of games then might I suggest a newsgroup. I thought 
I made it quite clear that the service was aimed at connecting to a 
home server which for me (and several others as far as I can work 
out) is very much relevant to HA. Even if it were an unrelated topic 
then I hardly think that would be unusual here!

I have not offered my actual business services here, nor would I. I 
would like to think that I have given a fair bit to the UKHA 
community and I have never asked for anything in return, just like 
many others here. The only reason I was looking to charge people in 
this instance is because I have to pay for the server and it seems 
fair to offset my costs.

I really do wonder why I bother with this place sometimes.
