Judging by ATI's reply, you might be able to make Slashback too. :-) > I was hoping to see some interest in FlightGear in all the responses, > but most of it was the standard slashdot nonsense**.

Unfortunately(?), we got a /. post on a holiday, so we will not get the response that we might have otherwise. It's good for Curt since we didn't /. UMN's network, but for the project bad from a PR standpoint. As for the mailing list subscriptions, we've had about 7 individuals subscribe to various lists over the past two days. We normally have about 1 or two people a day (I'm considering hacking up a perl script to make a graph of it right now...hmm...). We are a pretty popular spam target though. I usually delete 5+ spams a day that are caught for not being list members. Actually, one day a few weeks ago, someone put us on their massive "spam mailing list" or something. We received nearly 200 messages in one day, many of which were people replying to the list saying "STOP THIS SHTUFF!" It's all in /dev/null if anyone wants to read it later. :-) -- Cameron Moore /(bb|[^b]{2})/ _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
