Of course net.sources is for source code, and net.wanted is for wants, *but* what is the harm of a few short requests for sources in this group? Do you feel that the whole news net is going to come crashing down because there are a few articles that *may* be misplaced? Personally, I almost never even look at net.wanted, and there are probably many like me who would never see a request if it were'nt in a newsgroup that was read. I cannot see any harm in using a targetted news- group for requests. Nuf said. -- Russell Shilling { allegra, ihnp4, seismo }!scgvaxd!muddcs ===== plplplplplplplplplplplplplp =====
