HP3000-L content is taken by 3kworld from our newsfeed here, and their use of
it is another method of subscribing to the HP3000-L community.  Some people do
not have newsfeeds, some like the threaded approach as opposed to mailed
digests or individual messages.  Some mailers show messages in a threaded way -
others don't.  Some folks don't want their mailboxes cluttered up - a whole
host of reasons.

As for outdated content (noted in an earlier message) - and I have not looked
at it recently, but I have checked our event logs and content is making it
over, so if it's not being shown (and again, I haven't had the time to look,
nor do I have it right now), the problem may be on 3kworld's end.
