Is this kind of reticence necessary on this list? I basically "live
in the sewer of the Japanese Internet" so I don't much notice how much
s2t floats by. If it's not necessary, I'd rather have the stuff
accessible in case I want to look....
But if bandwidth is something that worries anybody, how about creating
an "xemacs-beta-large" where kyle can post multimedia editorial
comments and Ben can _literally_ talk us through our problems, and
people with something "large" like a 600 line lisp file or a 1000 line
inflooping backtrace can post it?
Maybe somewhere on ftp.xemacs.org that let people drop files for a few
days? That way those who don't have their own web server (or spcae)
could post an URL?
