On the other hand, I like the idea of different lists, because I joined the list more for discussion of UNIX internals and user interface than to help people asking for PASCAL compilers, although the continued discussion on some topics (e.g. protection) had decomposing horse aspects, and I do occasionall respond to software requests. We also clearly need some sort of filter to deal with things like people continuing to chip in with their 'rc' hypotheses after Dennis had answered definitively. I guess that my preference would be several lists, with filtering/digesting. ------- --------------- -------
