A quick note - the decentralized system that is being proposed is NOT peer

that comes from nodes? DMT - or the nodes themselves?
We are all

Doing the aggregation / syndication stuff as NNTP doesn't make much sense
to me. We are creating a web app, it should use web protocols. RSS is
perfect for this kind of things. It forces us to create the network to be
far simpler and open than if we did it with NNTP - and that is a very good

The issue was mailing lists vs. web boards; you will note that I *said*
that weblogg-y stuff should be syndicated by RSS.
Doing the mailinglist as Usenet is a very interesting idea

I am not too concerned about not having deanspace.com. The only thing we
would establish on the domain would be a site for techies. Techies can be
entrusted to find their way to the right domain Although it would be
nice to have all 3. Or we could solve the problem by buying
deaanspace.net
I've only given dean $150 so
far; I could cover setup and a bunch of months for only a couple hundred
more; anyway, it was just a thought. If it won't float, it won't float.
