My posts to the XSL-list seem to take an amazingly long time to make the round-trip back to me, and I think the cause might be my name! As a case in point consider the recent thread called "Standalone Attributes" started by Carlson Thor. According to my browser he sent it at 9:12 am EDT. I received at 10:27 EDT, where the holdup appears to have been half an hour with majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and a whole hour at web1-1.ability.net. While the message was in transit, Michael Kay and Ben Robb both replied to the original post - of course I didn't see these posts until 10:53 and 10:57 respectively, although they were sent at 9:35 and 9:19 (yes somehow the order got switched). In short, I never stood a chance. Is anyone else experiencing these delays? What's with the web1-1.ability.net intermediary? Can we have some kind of random mailing order on the list so that those disadvantaged by our parent's taste can have the prestige that goes with the first reply? Maybe I've got it all wrong and majordomo sends out posts based on the order in which people signed up - I had to unsuscribe and resuscribe recently. In the meantime, I'm considering changing my name by deedpoll to Aardvark. Has a nice ring to it. -- Warren Hedley XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
