I'd be in favor of the new group. I'd vote for it and offer what advice
I could. RAP just has too much traffic. This thread is a perfect
example, I doubt that even half of the users of this group are aware of
this discussion as it will have scrolled way off the bottom of the
screen by now.


What I can't undersand, Mike, is why anyone would be using a
reader that isn't threaded and doesn't have the "kill
thread" option. All of the modern ones have this ability.
To refuse to upgrade is similar to refusing to upgrade old
gear that sounds like **** just because you you are familiar
with its operation.

Too much traffic just doesn't mean anything when it is _so_
easy to limit the traffic to the part you want to see using
the facilities currently available. I do it considerably
because there is much in the audio domain that is of no
interest to me. On a thread count rather than message
count, which is what is now relevant, the number of those
new topics compared to the number of OT topics is really
large. I doubt that anyone else, even those who complain,
could say different.
