Posting here is instant for me because I'm a member ($10 for a lifetime
membership) and I stay logged in.  When I'm not logged in, or for
non-members, the verification email takes very little time and the added
security is nice.

Is there a way for instant posting via nntp?  I know I'd seen a bit
about possibly using PGP, but I don't know if that was implemented or
just a suggestion.

If such existed (or might exist soon), it would increase my priority
on donating, since I don't really like web interfaces.  As it is, I'll
donate eventually anyway, but it may take a while.

When you post via NNTP you get a confirmation e-mail.  To authorize
the post, just reply to that e-mail and insert an "x" between the
first [ ] brackets.  You don't even have to delete the space after you
insert the "x".  It only takes a few seconds.

I'd like to see PGP support added, but there are other things that the
LUGNET admins could be working on which would have a greater impact,
and I'd rather see them focus on those.
