It's not necessary to jump on everybody that asks for a re-posting of
a recently distributed program.  As most of us know, some sites
re-cycle note/news file space fast.  And the need for a particular
program isn't always apparent just when the program is distributed.

Also consider that some programs are poorly documented on dis-
tribution.  You may not even know what it does until somebody
else reports favorably on it.
