Filtering in eselect news would be problematic: Obtaining the list of items with "eselect news list" and e.g. reading them with "eselect news read" are issued as separate commands, which requires that the list of valid items does not change. However, time-based filtering could cause a race condition, like an item expiring between execution of the two commands. Ulrich
