[OT - mildly] Ping CWO4 Dave Mann and whomever - Pan Newsreader
Hi Dave! Just wanted to letch ya know that -- due to hardware problems etc -- I upgraded to Fedora 8. Still having hardware issues even after repair work, but in the distro was the NEW Pan Newsreader, which I gave a try for a day and a half. Some interesting new ideas therein, but VERY poorly implemented, and many necessary features -- like the ability to read /all/ the headers in case you have to report an abuse or such -- are simply not there anymore. Plus it crashed my machine, and even a reinstall wouldn't bring it back. (NBD) Needless to say, I have gone back to my old trusty "As she crawled across the table...." version, and all is well once more. In other words, AVOID it like unto the plague! SW |
