There is a proposal to replace slrn with tin in the book.  I have no
problems with this, but I would like to get the opinion of others who
may not read blfs-book.  For more information, see:

<http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/ticket/1847>

As a comment, tin is actively maintained as the most recent version is
dated 02/15/06.  The most recent version of slrn appears to be 10/07/04.
 The slrn sourceforge page says that the most recent version is

# slrn 0.9.8.0 released    2003-08-25

But we are currently using slrn 0.9.8.1 which was released 2004-10-07
according to slrn's home page.  I do see small changes as recently as 4
months ago in slrn's cvs src repository.
