Hi,
I note that back in 2006 the Usenet reader slrn was dropped from the book
in part because of a number of bugs and deficiencies and in part because
it was no longer under active development. See the thread:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg04718.html
However this has changed over the last year or so and John E Davis has
returned to slrn, addressed all of these issues and released a new version
on September 27th, 2008. Development continues on slrn through its svn
repository.
The slrn website has been rewritten and incorporates much of this detail:
http://slrn.sourceforge.net/
and the future is looking very promising again for slrn. Given all of
these developments can slrn be returned to the book next to tin?
Thanks for your trouble,
Andrew Strong
