How can there be a conflict of interests if it's free ? As Howard has said, the materials is free as long as his copyright message remains, and that it is non-commercial useage...
Just a FYI in case some of the people on this list isn't aware of... Marc Russell of CCBootCamp isn't a CCIE either . SO ? It's irrelevant, if you think his materials isn't useful, filter it off.... I personally think that it's quite good although I am not impress with the latest incanations due to the "copy protected" papers used. I think the final decision on who is allowed to "spam" lies with Paul... it's his list and his server , and it's a real OPT-IN unlike some of the spams out there...
