Well I was in shock hearing about this, I first heard about this on the CTPP email list, which BTW is good but has totally different feel to this forum.
But I am in two minds about it.
If I was Cory I would have done the same, as one hopes he is getting something out of it. After all he has put in a lot of hard work over the years on this site.
From a personal note I can not join, according to the terms and conditions, you have to disclose all formal and informal conections to vendor companies. which can be publically viewed.
This can be good to stop blatent sales advertising and knowing who is saying things. But in my case I am not in sales, but work elsewhere for a company and also have informal links to another company.
The fact no one knows who I really am here and who I work for means I can give my 2ps worth on issues without fear of looking like I am talking on behalf of an organisation.
This is not to hide my connection to the general reader, but I would rather not have those above me in the company I work for know who I am, and informal links I have to other companies.
