but nonetheless I disagree. If rtl is served from here, cross posting
should be allowed for messages first posted here. Regardless of whether
the poster is posting an original or a follow up.
The technical details may be hard to unravel, but we have to unravel
them. One of the big advantages posited was the ability to cross post,
and thus blend community. Without that advantage, why bother.
Note that I am against serving RTL from here, but if you're going to do
it, do it right.
I will, if I have time, analyse in detail and respond but it may not be
till the weekend. This week just got a lot worse for me.

- Posting Binaries to RTL causes flamage... Don't do it, please.
- Stick to the facts when posting about others, please.
- This is a family newsgroup, thanks.
