Please stop now.  You are beginning to annoy core developers.

One of our core developers wrote privately to you to make some
suggestions, and to tactfully inform you that you were inappropriately
using our project resources.

If you have anything else to say on this matter, feel free to reply to
me privately, or to the developer who sent you a private message.

Please do not reply to this list.

We are an open, welcoming community in general, but as we grow it
becomes evident that there are those who would attempt to unfairly take
advantage of our generosity.

Please do not be one of them.

Marty
