You have been heard.  We (or at least I) accept your apology. Now,  if you wish, I
would have no objection if you posted a message telling us that we could order direct
from you, and if we want more details to please reply to your post and you would deal
with us individually.

or 

Why don't you consider setting up an anonymous ftp so we can get bug fixes, press
releases, etc and send this info to c.s.i.p.g.announce.

Everyone is entitled to one misteak.
