- Wouldn't a conforming USENET name be alt.binaries.vb.examples ? You know,
- greater level of detail as you go along. Then there's the "examples" part
- -- what the difference between examples and other source? Why not
- alt.binaries.vb.source?
-
- [Lots of reasons]
-
- My only reason for NOT wanting this is that there are FTP servers around.
- USENET binaries create more net traffic than FTP binaries, so there!
