Actually that's a mistake, I last updated it in November but forgot to update the 'last updated' info...

  1. Will contact Andrew privately to see if he would be willing to program the updates that come to him if we can find people to monitor each of the portals he lists (not me - I do enough maintaining my website),
  2. Will list this suggestion on this formum as a separate topic, and
  3. Will participate in this endeavor
I am happy with this approach.

I definitely have not and intend to keep it going for some time to come. I have made updates based on feedback received from fellow FTers. I had been running though my mind whether I want to include limited time offers in the table or not though since it is an exponential increase in the maintenance burden and would be very hard to keep up to date.
