But there's already a GWN list, which I assume those that want have signed |
| 16 |
up for. Putting them on the announce list as well would therefore be |
| 17 |
little more than noise. That doesn't hold for the other announcements on |
| 18 |
the front page, and I've wondered myself why some of them aren't making it |
| 19 |
to the announce list. |

As for the forums, "I'm familiar with the concept." <g> I don't spend |
| 22 |
enough time in them, however, to comment on that angle. |
