I don't think either of these web site policies are good, but the result can be that one is locked out of the site, and sometimes one cannot just boycott them. On the other hand, it should not be an issue for Amaya's primary use as an editor. -- --------------------------- DISCLAIMER --------------------------------- Any views expressed in this message are those of the individual sender, except where the sender specifically states them to be the views of BTS.
