Comment (by mlavin):
This rant is very colorful but I believe you are incorrect in your
understanding of the law in this case. While I'm not a lawyer, CAN-SPAM
does not apply to transactional content which the Trac updates would fall
under. The law only applies to commercial messages as defined by
> any electronic mail message the primary purpose of which is the
commercial advertisement or promotion of a commercial product or service
which Trac ticket update emails are clearly not. Your frustration is
understandable but your subtle threats against the DSF are not necessary
nor based on fact.
Read the CAN-SPAM rule here: http://ecfr.gpoaccess.gov/cgi/t/text/text-
