Lines: 17 The simpler system is to use my dynamic feeder. I have been running it as the main feed for my own site, as well as the outgoing feeder for 3 ClariNet sites, for some time now and it seems to be working. So it's time for beta test? To test you need a cooperative feed site and (one assumes) the cooperation of the recipient. Of course, in many cases insitagation of the use of this program would come from the recipient, so in practice you need both. I will leave a preliminary distribution on uunet for ftp shortly, and will post here about it. It has certainly cut down my disk space needs and transmission times. It is nice to see 'junk' almost empty, except for postings in very new groups that I haven't bothered to create. -- Brad Templeton, ClariNet Communications Corp. -- Waterloo, Ontario 519/884-7473
