Web? Just say no. In fact if the list went there, I'd drop it. Web is fine for initial research, but beyond that it's a waste of time. Certainly, browser interfaces for reading and sending messages on the Web are at least a decade behind what's available for mail and news on Unixen. - Tim Iverson iverson AT lionheart-com +---------------- | From: vischne AT ibm DOT net | Date: Wed, 3 Dec 1997 21:34:09 GMT | Subject: Re: Too much mail volume | To: gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com | | Look, if you guys had any smarts, you would scrap the mail version of this | list entirely and go with the archive instead. | | That way, people interested in knowing what is going on in the discussion | can tune in to the archive and not bother with their e-mail server. You | would also add a URL for posting followups to archive articles. - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
