Well since you mention it the mailing list page says
The ‘main’ R mailing list, for discussion about problems and solutions
using R, announcements (not covered by ‘R-announce’ or ‘R-packages’, see
above), about the availability of new functionality for R and
documentation of R, comparison and compatibility with S-plus, and for
the posting of nice examples and benchmarks.
Which suggests to me that announcements of courses are not covered by
the terms and conditions.

Bert,
they are
for profit, and therefore advertising them here does seem somewhat
inappropriate.
I don't want to be rude or funny, but the general guidelines for this
mailing list state "Do your homework before posting". There is nowhere a
statement on the general guidelines that state that you cannot make an
announcement for a course (which by the way, introduces R to people who
never have used R before)....be it for profit or not. And even if it
would have such a statement, I don't think that a 'once per quarter'
email about an R course does much harm.
Apologies to everyone else for filling up your mailbox. Bert....if you
would like to discuss this further then please email me directly and I
will send a summary to the list later.
Kind regards,
Alain
Please, I don't want to start a long discussion or war. Just slap me
down if I am wrong about this.
Cheers,
