(...) I believe that I'm at 77 classes, built or almost built, at the moment. Boats - have 15 (1 is carried by the SES) Longboats - none yet, but I have some examples of how to make them. Cutters - want 20, have 19. Brigs - want 6, have 6, but two (...) (26 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Well, there's precedent in alt.dev.null [1]. But really, I can't think of very many things that couldn't either go to one of the .off-topic groups (not just .debate!) or just be left unsaid. [1] what fun! (26 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Seems like the standard approach. Here's a wrinkle to think about. You allow multiple passwords. So are you going to generate a new one and leave the old one in force? What if I have 4 already? On the other hand, if you get rid of the old one, (...) (26 years ago, 23-Jul-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
