Might I suggest that a solution for some of the problems in this newsgroup would be to not post anything but sources here? It seems to me that last year this group was pretty clean, and since I came back to school at the end of the summer, it has been full of discussion. A logical solution to the traffic problem in this group would be to post SOURCES here, post BUGS and BUG FIXES to net.sources.bugs, and MAIL your comments to the authors of programs rather than posting followup articles to this group. If net-wide discussion of programs posted here is deemed necessary, said discussion should be placed in other newsgroups. Perhaps there should be a net.sources.d or some other such group. Any comments from the administrators of the "backbone" sites? Paul Dormitzer ...!harvard!h-sc1!dormitzer
