Yes, nagware should be allowed as long as it is identified as
such.

No, but only if
A. Programs with splashscreens are not to be discussed
B. Program that makes shortcuts on the desktop are not discussed

Both things are not needed for any program.

Yes, but this voting is not arranged by our point person, it is not
arranged by us as a collective, it is an irregular voting started by a
person who has a hidden agenda.

Whatever the result it is not valid.
John Corlis is mad because I told someone about www.995pdf.com
that is not exactly freeware. It opens a browser after you use it with a
sponsor.
I personally have used the pdf printer and I find it a fantastic product,

I mentioned this software because there is no other freeware in this
category for windows.
If it wasnt so good, I wouldnt have said anything..

I am slow and the question is hard to get my head around. Maybe there
has been a thread which has explored nagware recently.

I think nagware could be discussed in this group but not in the same way
or to the same level as shareware. For example, one might make a
passing reference to nagware applications or advise that they are free
although with annoying nag boxes.
