This program tells me what articles are on your system, verifys the validity of incoming articles with brik, and mails the results to me. Needless to say a good mail connection would be useful, and you must have brik. I'd like to get sites in the USA, Europe, Australia, and anywhere else the group reaches regularly. I only need a few, to get an idea of propigation delay, etc, so don't be offended if I don't accept every offer, I'm looking for reassurance that things are getting out, not a realtime map of distribution. The program overhead is minimal, and the repost should only be a few K characters. If this works out, I will post the software for other moderators to use if they wish. -- bill davidsen (davidsen@crdos1.crd.GE.COM -or- uunet!crdgw1!crdos1!davidsen) "Stupidity, like virtue, is its own reward" -me
