Well, Nabble's search facility is pretty dismal at present. Better, now that I've looked at the search tips, but still a very geeky interface. The proximity search is a nice touch, as is the soundex mechanism. I've only become aware of Nabble since Scott's posting, but the presentation looks good to me. ****************** However, one thing about Nabble worries me. If I read the FAQ correctly, people will be able to register an ID with Nabble and be able to post to the list (this list) without having to contact runrev to subscribe to the list. The Nabble interface itself acts as a go-between to authorize anyone to post to the list as long as they've registered a user ID with you. This seems to me, if it's not a violation of the terms of service of the list, at least a Very Bad Idea. ****************** -- -Mark Wieder [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
