My judgement, after a quick perusal of the website, it isn't FOSS and it 
doesn't run on Linux, so it doesn't begin to rate for me. In fact it 
unpleasantly reminds me of what I gave up 20 months ago when I adopted 
GNU/Linux as my sole operating system.

The DENIAL of being SPAM is always suspect to me, why not couch the 
request in positive language if it's genuine? At the very least a naive 
way of doing promotion. for me a suspicious, cynical turn-off.

Cheers... Rex
