I do find the announcement of a new engine in and of itself interesting, and don't mind seeing that. I guess I just see this list as more of a troubleshooting list, and I love seeing how trouble gets shot. I guess I just don't expect repeated announcements of products I already know exist :-) You're not particularly guilty of this (I just bothered to search the archives :-) ), but some products have an announcement every few days at time. Probably some people do like seeing those updates, and as I'm in no way related to the owners of this list I also have nothing much to say on how it is run. > Nevertheless, I prefix my e-mails with [ANN] (for announcement), so that > you can filter it out if you don't want to see it. > Yes, I just checked, and most everyone seems to do that, so I just added the filter, which removes my gripe :-) Thank you for answering :-) -- Bier met grenadyn Is als mosterd by den wyn Sy die't drinkt, is eene kwezel Hy die't drinkt, is ras een ezel
