An incorrect fix to a bug in 2.7 caused a serious bug in 2.8. The inews command would not wait for input when invoked directly from the tty, resulting in a background process fighting for input with your shell. The same thing happened with postnews if EDITOR was not set. 2.9 is a very short update to 2.8. As always, diff scripts are posted to net.sources, although this time they are quite short. Another bug preventing full names from working with recnews has been fixed.
