I fully support and encourage the good work that David has
done and is doing on ADBC....  and he did the right thing by
including a URL pointer...  *BUT*:  Taking the "level playing field"
view, I would respectfully point out that there should have been
the usual  <plug> - </plug>  bracketing David's comments
about his commercial product that he has for sale....
