I remember that as stated above was a general
recommendation in vogue ante 1990s since we
go with PBBS and digipeaters based on only
radio/tnc/modem at maximum speed of 1200 bds;
so any bit would be saved for necessity.

The fact that, almost in this part of world,
we (my system, in particular) can send thousands
messages in ten seconds demonstrates that there
is no limitation about transfer speeds and no
limits in our ultra-gigabytes Hard Disks.

How many actual Ham people know NNTP and how many
of them is capable to use it?
I was not aware about any bad language or profanity
at al, stored on that technical mailing lists...

We (me) are sane enough and skilled to use advanced
software... but first of all, in this context we are
ham radio; no one with a sane brain can invent to
do a bad job on introducing illegal stuff!

Furthermore, about the actual JNOS2 developer, He is
a God benediction for the ham Community, and so, when
contacted should be ONLY for improvements or for
further software developments, and not to annoy him
with claims!
Now you can enjoy since NNTP has been *practically*
dropped since there are no NNTP server on 44-net!
