  Re: Should RTL be hosted on this server?
 
(...) Let me state that a slightly different way -- It is not supposed to be a place for a few select people to congregate and behave in a way that is natural for them (which just happens to be civil). It is supposed to be a place for everyone to (...) (26 years ago, 29-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Should RTL be hosted on this server?
 
(...) Yes, 100% correct -- it would mean no change to RTL whatsoever, except perhaps crossposting in headers, which I'm beginning to think is inescapable in the long-term due to the way caching NNRP servers work. Anyway, yes, anyone could still read (...) (26 years ago, 29-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Should RTL be hosted on this server?
 
(...) You may be 100% right, before I tackle any of those questions, I need to come to a better understanding of section 202 of the new Digital Millenium Copyright Act of the 105th Congress. It deals with limitations on liabilities for Internet (...) (26 years ago, 29-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)

Todd Lehman wrote in message <366163a8.4473573@lu...et.com>... (...) <snipped most of the discussion.....> (...) I'm not sure about this. I really enjoyed RTL for some time, did some good trades, and shared a joke or two. I don't even look there (...) (26 years ago, 29-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Should RTL be hosted on this server?
 
Todd, Could you clarify technically what you mean by hosted on this server? I think there is some confusion. I understand that you are trying to investigate the social implications, but I think everyone needs to understand what would happen (...) (26 years ago, 29-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Should RTL be hosted on this server?
 
(...) Todd, I am new to the newgroup, but have been using RTL extensively for some time. The only way I found out about this set of newgroups was a post on RTL that mentioned them. Active recruitment in RTL would be essential to bring new members (...) (26 years ago, 29-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)
 
  RTL on Lugnet
 
Heya all ! I can't post new mails on RTL since one week ago. I don't know where's the problem but I guess that RTL SHOULD be a host on Lugnet. Both (RTL & Lugnet) are cool ! Thanx. Rene (26 years ago, 29-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)

(...) Here goes, but I'd like to hear some response from you on whether you agree with my technical comments (about article expiration and content based verification, specifically) or not. :-) Note that due to size I am putting footnotes on the same (...)

  Re: Should RTL be hosted on this server?
 
(...) I think it would be best -- if RTL were offered -- to offer it in its entirety unchanged. There seem to be quite a few HTML postings there (like maybe 5 a week or more) and I don't think it's possible to educate Usenet newbies about (...) (26 years ago, 29-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)
