[comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d] Recent subjects and where to post

ts@uwasa.fi (Timo Salmi LASK) (02/25/90)

Dear Fellow Netters,
   Please don't get me wrong, if I suggest a judicious selection of
the newsgroup to post to.  
   Lately there have been a number of postings that would probably
get more relevant feedback if posted in a more appropriate group
than here in c.b.i.p.d.  Examples are discussions on programs which
are fully commercial, and where neither the binaries nor the
shareware and PD ftp sites have nothing to offer.  Or discussions
and arguing about such specialized Unix features which have nothing
whatsoever to do with transferring, unpacking, or decoding PC files
or anything related. 
   Please let me emphasize, that I am not flaming anyone, just
pointing out that everyone gains if we choose the target newsgroup
with the contents and the audience in mind.  Nor am I claiming to be
innocent myself.  Don't let this curb the flow of information that
is beneficial to this newsgroup.
   All the best,  Timo
