(...) Thanks for looking into this Gereon. I'm wondering whether this is a problem with the NNTP server or a problem with extra meta-data stored specifically for the web interface? (...) Yeah I noticed the raw message seemed incorrect, but I (...) (20 years ago, 27-Nov-06, to lugnet.admin.general)

Ben, About about your last sentence... one of the things the first two or three cycles of Ambassadors discussed was how to be a two-way conduit between TLG and the community, but it sounds like that's changed to be more one way: info goes into (...)

There appears to be something dicky happening with some message indexing. Example 1: (URL) should be attached to this post: (URL) 2: (in the same thread): (URL) should be a reply to: (URL) but appears beside it in the tree display. Example 3: (URL) (...)

I'm just wondering if this group should be under the lugnet.lego hierarchy, as the ambassador program is run by TLC? FUT: .admin.general ROSCO (20 years ago, 27-Nov-06, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.ambassadors)
