-
- Yes, you are exactly right. One further piece of information. Our
- main archive format at Garbo is .zip and many .zip files come with
- the -AV security label. Whenever possible I prefer to have the
- original, so that the possible -AV label is still intact.
-
- Of course the -AV label can be hacked, as has been much discussed in
- comp.compression. But if the material comes from the original
- author, the risks are much smaller.
-
- Keith and I have been asked about making the proper distribution
- version of Telix available. Patience, gentle readers, patience
- please. We have both been terribly busy with all sorts of
- administrative bureucracy and strife (both expected and unexpected)
- that running newly passed newsgroups inevitably seems to cause.
-
- All the best, Timo
