Ah, I just had an insight to what the problem is. I bet some of the
people who are complaining read Lugnet from the main page, which
consolidates all the newsgroups.

Yes.  I often encounter frustration with this sometimes when perusing
lugnet.cad.dat.models , and seeing more messages for
lugnet.cad.dat.models.sets .  I chalked it up to something that can be fixed
later, however; there are other features I want *now*.  :-,

Now I see why you are looking at this channel stuff, that would allow
people to create a top page which consolidates the areas of interest,
and overcome the fact that the lugnet hierarchy can never be perfect.

This solution never occured to me when I suggested RSS to Todd, but I really
really really like it.  I'm actually kinda quivering with excitement over the
potential this offers for Web applications in general.  (But don't tell anyone
I used the word "quivering".  :-)

(...) Me too. The more I think about the potentials, the more I go "wow!" (...) So long as you don't use "space boots" in the same sentence, you're fine. :) (25 years ago, 4-Mar-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
