Just a clarification: I meant that a lot of people became members of the SSDF
solely because of the subscribtion of the mag PLY and not because of they wanted
to become testers. What you state above seems to verify this hypothesis!?

Well, I will try to get in contact with the webmaster of SSDF and try to solve
things out. Not much point in continuing guessing when someone might have the
answers already :-)
