The 4 line ad at the bottom of this post..

Heya all,

Forgive me if you've already read this post as I am cross posting it to several of the lists here at SecurityFocus. I am soliciting data and regrettably not all of our users are on the same lists so I need to send the same questions out several times. Over the last year or so there has been a 4 line advert attached to the end of each outgoing Pen-Test and Incidents mailing list messages. I am considering changing these ads so that SecurityFocus is not the only advertiser on them while keeping the 4 line limit and as an appended item only. My goal here is to make this list and the website which hosts it a self sufficient community, something it requires in order to guarantee its longevity. When I changed the initial outgoing messages a year ago no one complained. However Id like to touch base here again before I should choose to move ahead. Like I said earlier this is about sustainable community meaning it needs to pay for itself or at least contribute something back. Your thoughts on this are appreciated.

P.S. This will not be an issue for all mailing lists here and in particular NOT for Bugtraq.
