Don't get me wrong, it's definitely not a bad idea at all. The more
features we can provide to this aging, crusting technology the better, I
guess.

Now to your usage description.. How often do you actually use the interbbs
messaging feature that Synchronet has? I've gotten maybe 10 messages from
others the entire time I've run Synchronet, and by the time I reply,
they've already logged off whatever system they were on. I dunno. I just
don't see much usage coming of it, to be honest. Then again, this is coming
from someone stuck in their old ass ways. :)
