Hello Wilfred!

 WvV> "linux elite" ?

I meant exclusive linux users, power users, who recognize that  
Brave is pretty darn good!


 WvV> So maybe there aren't any of those in Fidonet, whatever
 WvV> that might mean? ;-)

At least not any following the couple of echos where I started  
to mention this issue.


 WvV> As for me 'Brave' isn't even on my radar. Which probably

Yeah.

I thought Brave was quite well known.  It seems to incorporate  
many of the features that people have been seeking wrt privacy.
