(...) Oooho. Yessss...! Across all the articles posted so far, I only see one instance* of the Keywords header, but I still agree that it seems worth keeping and indexing on -- I'd even argue that it's a bug not to index on it. Alrighty then, I (...) (25 years ago, 27-Aug-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.admin.general)

So, the lugnet web site seems to work well with the latest devel build of mozilla. Very cool. I'm pretty impressed with the progress -- last time I played with it, it was barely useable.
