All they are doing is using the more convenient and faster electronic mail to poll their customers on whether a new product is desired. This is much the same as Berkeley or BTL asking if anybody would like a new command for UNIX. Particularly, in the case of decvax, which puts a lot of money into supporting the uucp network as a central node, should be able to ask such a question. Advertising of other forms is another question, however.
