I have a merx account but I won't download it if I am not interested. The problem with merx is that it lists everyone who has downloaded publicly, so that suppliers and subcontractors can start calling names on the list trying to make sales (depending on the type of work). I am not interested in this type of work.

I can see how it sucks for the public. I would frequently look at plans out of general interest before, but now I am cautious. But it is nice that we don't have to go be at an office downtown at exactly noon to drop off tenders. It's all online now.
