The advantage of newsgroups over mailing lists is that newsgroups are designed for discussions among several people and therefore newsgroup software supports this kind of usage very well while mailing lists are actually a hack.

(Pls. do not see this as a provocation, I'm realy interested to hear.) Sincerely, Gour -- Registered Linux User | #278493 GPG Public Key | 8C44EDCD
