My original comments were based on Kris's "do you think this is
appropriate" post, since I hadn't seen the actual post containing the
price list yet.

However, on reading the price list, I am firmly opposed to having it
posted here periodically.  The same would be true for any other price
lists.

Many list members pay for their incoming email, and several have
complained about the volume of messages on this list.  We therefore
need to keep our postings brief and on-topic.

Just because there is not another good place to post such information,
does not mean that it is reasonable to post it here.

Again, I'd certainly encourage posting *pointers* to such information
to the list and/or in the FAQ file.

p.s. It is not my intention to slam Kris for posting the list once. I
just want to clearly state that it should not be posted periodically.
