+[02] WHAT IS THE BENEFIT OF HAVING A JOURNAL, GALLERY, ET CETERA SDF?
+     The single most important aspect of this all is that you and
+     you alone own and retain all rights to your content.  There are
+     many commercial sites on the INTERNET these days and while they
+     offer you services without taking your money, they aren't
+     necessarily free.  In nearly all cases you are forced to accept
+     an end user agreement that releases all rights to what you put
+     on their servers.  You may not care about this but most SDF
+     members realize that in the long term giving up rights to your
+     photos, music, artwork, thoughts and ideas in exchange for
+     "free hosting" will most likely be something you'll regret.
+     Another aspect is that SDF allows you access to several key areas
+     that the majority of commercial operations restrict:
+) You have access to your logfile.  This documents every
+        request made for your URL.  MOTD logfiles persist for a year
+        and are rolled over on January 1st 00:00:01.
+) You have access to your database.  You can log directly into
+        your database and manipulate your tables and data yourself.
+) You have access to the framework.  All software packages used
+        in the MOTD membership are available to MOTD members to make
+        updates, changes and fixes.  Likewise, members can submit
+        their own software for other members to use and collaborate
+        on.  The main benefit of this is the ability to quickly update
+        source distributions when security flaws are discovered.
+     Source distributions are kept in /sys/motd which is available from
+     all systems on the SDF network.  Files are versioned via the RCS.
