Argh, please don't put us on usenet. I can't stand netnews, the delays
would be a hassle, propogation is a mess, and if you think the of messages
is screwy now, wait till you see what it looks like on usenet. Keep us a
mailing list. As to digests, I think Eli may be working out new list
software which can enable folks to request digest form or normal form.
We'll see what happens.
