Don,
It is perfectly legitimate for postings about commercial
software to be made on BIO-SOFTWARE/bionet.software. The restriction
is that they should not be made by people with a financial interest in
the software. The usual procedure when discussing commercial software
is to do as you did, i.e., end with a disclaimer that the poster has
no commercial interest in the software. This, of course, works on the
honor system, but if repeated abuse is discovered steps can be taken
to terminate a site's network access.
