RE: mailing list digests....

[Gregg C Levine]

Hello!
I agree. There is one such example on this list.

And as it happens on yet another list, this discussing the development of an
advanced version of the classic BIOS. (Linux BIOS project in case anyone is
concerned.) There an individual posted the entire digest back not even
bothering to trim it to fit his question or comment, his comment was
completely meaningless in case anyone is concerned.

So what happens? One of the members, in fact where the entire site lives,
promptly responds and complains. It saved me the trouble of doing so.

Therefore I strongly support this request. If people which to read the list
in this fashion then perhaps we can make arrangements to have one of the
outside firms to do so, just not UseNet.
