I guess it depends on which "update" you're talking about. I think that
posting a note occasionally to the newsgroup listing new sets added recently
is definitely a useful thing to continue. But I don't think that an "Added,
Thanks" note needs to be posted to the newsgroup confirming each and every
inventory that was posted in the newgroup. For those I prefer to just get
an e-mail message confirmation. Again, I'm not strongly for or against
either position; that's just my gut reaction.
