Thursday evening, Paul Edwards posted a news item from Interex.
It included the following:

Nice to see work moving quickly! :)


I didn't understand a couple headers, though:

> Comments: To: [log in to unmask]
> To: [log in to unmask]

Does this mean it was sent straight to hp3000-L, or to the newsgroup?


One observation on the site that right away I don't like at all:
Selecting the "News" link provides a different set of news items
(press releases, white papers, etc.) every time.  Yuck.

Go ahead -- make me "wonder" if I've seen something before.
Rather than waste my time wondering, I just won't go.
