How else were they supposed to get anybody to their presentations?  It
is not about what one wants done, but about how they go about doing
it. If, per se, there was a conversation about fuzzing then one could
lead a conversation, or reply to an inquery, into their own mailing
list. Otherwise, it is, and always will be, spam as the person is
ADVERTISING without request.  Everyone else knows what SPAM is, right?
