Maybe we ought to get a good community going on over there. I've never tried it tbh, I'm too young I guess.
Are there any glaring missing features or problems in the protocol? I know people also talk about IRC a lot, which is great for some things, but it sucks for async communication because there's no way to stay part of the conversation after you log off. Any similar style issues with usenet?
