I would suggest that any newsgroup we set up be bi-directionally gatewayed to the existing glove-list, so that people in the mailing-list-only situation can still participate fully in the discussion. (No, I'm not in that situation myself... I just would hate to lose any of the contributors to the list). Software exists to do the gatewaying. > whether or not to moderate it is still unclear. Bear in mind that (a) moderation means tedious work for someone, and (b) it makes the list sluggish. -- Bernie Roehl, University of Waterloo Electrical Engineering Dept Mail: broehl@sunee.waterloo.edu OR broehl@sunee.UWaterloo.ca BangPath: watmath!sunee!broehl Voice: (519) 885-1211 x 2607 [work]
