I don't know about you, but I want somebody with experience moderating
the most useful group on the Internet. I also wouldn't mind beta-testing
packages that come through, so as to give Rich and the authors a bit
more assurance that the code is portable. If Rich likes the idea of
having testers, your proposal for comp.sources.refereed will fall flat.
Why are you so eager to institute major changes in a system that works?
