Fully agree,
perhaps we all (the OS-crowd) just waited for Ben's release...
and I still hope that we all may be leaded into a new world of
OS-development with Ben's work and find more to share our personal
experience on the matter even with apart discussion branches.
Not sure if Alexei can read us, because I cannot see his and
Maxim's posts anymore on my usenet account...
I hesitate (for some reason) to check on goggle-news.
Usenet is there to transfer short text-based info for those
who are interested. Me personally Isn't interested in graphical
smilies, nor ww-distributed graphic-bloat-ware...
Text-based UseNet were and still is my favourite base for
information (I really can renounce of graphical smilies!
perhaps just because I think that I'm already grown up)
