You're right, D'Arcy. I don't know exactly what “much better interfaces [than Usenet]” the poster was thinking of, that's why I listed some of the features that Usenet has which I don't see improved on in other interfaces. Now it's up to those who think such features can be improved upon to present a non-vapourware system that demonstrably has all of those features or better. -- \ “I am too firm in my consciousness of the marvelous to be ever | `\ fascinated by the mere supernatural …” —Joseph Conrad, _The | _o__) Shadow-Line_ | Ben Finney -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
