Version: 0.9.8.1pl1-15
Tags: patch

The attached one-line patch bumps the default Slrn_Query_Group_Cutoff
from 100 to 2000. IMO, this is a change that should've been made years
ago when 56Kbps modems were invented.

Now, when you enter a newsgroup, unless there are more than 1000
messages, you won't get an annoying message about how many headers to
download. And if someone doesn't like the setting, they can always
change it back.

The patch is also pasted below.

Jason Spiro
