Re: Group Description: SOME CHANGES

hello;

i am really confused now and need to ask for some clarification.

does this mean that if i am developing a firewire axis controller
that may be used in a commercial environment i may not post to this
group concerning it?

does this mean that if i am working on converting older bridgeport
equipment for a commercial job shop i may not post comments or
questions here?

does this mean that if i make spare parts for someone for sale that
i am now commercial and no longer a home shop?

lastly, does this mean that if i am working on a 'commercial' grade
cad-cam software package that i may not post comments here concerning
it?

basically, what is the definition of "commercial professional systems"
and "commercial settings" you are using?

it would appear that several list members will not be able to post
since they are "commercial" in that they either upgrade older
equipment for schools, job shops, etc; sell equipment controllers; or
cad software.
