I believe appropriate cartographic commercial announcements, those that are
thorough and discuss their data or application in technical terms  have a
place in MAPS-L or at least a subdirectory.
 
We often sight many reviews, comments and listings in our technical
reference manual for the cartography students and faculty.
 
Thank you,
Jim Robb
