</div>We do not have an agreement with Yahoo!. Rather, we have asked Yahoo!<br>
for clarification, and Yahoo! has examined their terms and conditions -<br>
without chaning them to accomodate us - and has said: Yes, we believe<br>
what you're doing is within the existing terms and conditions as long as<br>
you use our web API.</blockquote><div><br>*headdesk* should have read the whole thread before replying.<br><br>I'll check out the yahoo agreement with a lawyer friend of mine on the weekend and find out what the deal is.<br>
