I've been reading the discussion on the need for a comp.sources.acorn or comp.binaries.acorn newsgroup. I say start the binaries area ASAP - the Usenet Gateway here on CIX is currently read-only, and lacking in any kind of kill facility, so I often end up with a mammoth file to read offline, often containing long binary postings which I don't want AT ALL. Dunno 'bout a sources area - what would people want to post there? Just my tuppence worth... Alan Ralph @ Compulink Information eXchange, Surbiton, England.
