Please pardon my petting a peeve in public <grin/>, but... In the last digest, it felt like a third of the space was consumed by the multiple-posting mail loop, which we can't do a huge amount about... and another third by HTML replicas of posts, which we _can_ solve by simply turning off that feature before hitting the send key. If you absolutely need rich-text in order to illustrate something, that's fine. But in most cases, especially for something like XML that's text-based, it really doesn't add anything to your message. It more than doubles the bandwidth you're consuming. And it's a Real Pain to scroll past in the digest; a one-screen note followed by eight screens of markup is somewhat frustrating. Just a personal request. If the group disagrees, I'll manage. ______________________________________ Joe Kesselman / IBM Research Unless stated otherwise, all opinions are solely those of the author.
