Then we should change the description of wgetpaste, as this is the only keyword which limits result for paste to those associated with what we understand as uploading a paste somewhere. The second package, still on hold for some months now because of some bug with curl, requires curl. wgetpaste requires wget and is functional now, which is why I suggested it (and maybe add the lisp upload web service to the default sites?). -- ♥Ⓐ ng0 | ng0.chaosnet.org
