Astrophysics Lines: 15 Xref: watmath net.news:2968 net.news.stargate:8 As a peripheral issue to stargate and phone news transmission, maybe it is time to get an efficient version of the ihave/sendme feature of news working properly. I have never understood why the list of articles under consideration could not be transmitted in the body of one big control article rather than the headers of a bunch of little ones. I know ... why don't you do it yourself. Aside from the usual fact that time is in short supply for me right now, I would have trouble justifying working on it now as our site only has one news feed. It would be nice to at least keep this under consideration in some future distribution of the news software. -- Bill Sebok Princeton University, Astrophysics {allegra,akgua,burl,cbosgd,decvax,ihnp4,noao,princeton,vax135}!astrovax!wls
