Ivan,

It was my understanding that you had said you would integrate our product 
with yours.  However, I can't place my finger on the e-mail - and its 
really unimportant to us.  We don't make money on our software products, 
or software consulting/support. 

As you know, we give our Sign-Up away to our members (compare to 
hurl.net's $1,000 product), and membeship fees are currently waived.  We 
also provide a free new-subscriber CD to link with the sign-up server; 
our ISPs reproduce their CDs to their heart's content.  And we're also 
working on a CD admin kit - make your own, as many as you like.

Freeside is just one part of the ISPs' requirements.  You have to get 
customers on-line efficiently, and then bill them; that's a complete 
automated product.

You had talked about a sign-up server initiative of your own.  We'd be 
just as happy to support that.  Any progress there?
