Default zombied posts living by misadventure


Hello group :-)

It seems while cleansing my pan I accidentally
released a few posts I once wrote, some very old, that had
been, for any reason, sleeping in the 'not-sent' pot.

Hence those apparently without head and tail posts
that just appeared.
Oh well, though, some people here may even say these're not
much more headless and bubble black than others ;D)

I cleaned out my .Pan directory just yesterday and it was sprinkled with
stuff that never quite made it to the outer world. Let's pray for version
1.0 :-)

That's nothing compared to the guy over on a.r.k who just responded to a
6-month old post with something really witty, along the lines of "go to
hell, moron!"

It annoys me, too, that Pan doesn't automatically send replies, or doesn't
at least ask me if I would like to do so when I connect, such as
Thunderbird does for e-mail.

Well, as the quite close to 1.0 version I run,
0.14.90-CVS from last week or so it's not totally ready yet )
-- and if you feel like going CVS too, mind that there was a change
of format in some files that'll make you have to repair your
group/post/dirs-histories --

I'm just delighted to hear that the version numbers are cranking up again,
even if they remain an entire continuum away from 1.0 :-)

Actually, I'm worried about DanC. He's recently given several helpful
replies to queries, and completely failed to insult the poster in the
process. Must be Alzheimer's.

ARK does have a DanK, BTW. He has the manners of (the former) DanC and
the technical expertise of AC. If you can believe it!

Why yes, yes he has. I've always been a nice guy, just frequently
misunderstood...

I've never set foot in ARK, BTW, neither the NG or the state.

Well, it seems to me like a few weeks in my killfile did you good :-)

You'd like a.r.k, I can't speak to the state.
