Howdy, I'm testing whether or not I can upload databases. The first file is a 110k EN+2.0 file. It features American Naturalist for the last 2 years. Again, if this group is moderated or anyone has problems with swapping databases here, *PUH-leeze* let me know. If this works, and their are no objections, I'll post a flyer on the sci.bio hierarchy. The demand response for database swapping is potentially quite large. 1MB+ larger files are not unreasonable, but could conceivably overload the main server. So again, if there are any problems, email me and I'll refrain from opening the flood gates. If you have any suggestions for better places to post/swap, please let me know that as well.

In the future, this might be somthing you can do on our internet server. Why don't you all right us here and let us know what kind of services you would like to see us provide now that we are getting properly hooked up.

Hello All, Actually, something that we should all be aware of is that this here usenet group and the EndNote mail list mirror each other. I think they do, at least when they are working. That's why this is a listserv mailing list. Thus, it really isn't a good idea to post files to this group. It could cause many people to waste time downloading files that they don't need and many people pay money for time spent doing this. It is a better idea to find an ftp site where you can place your files. Then simply give the ftp address in the message. Many news readers will now let you click on an ftp address in a message to get the file.

It operated perfectly well for about a year, and was something that many of us appreciated and found useful. Then for some unknown reason, the list seemed to disappear, only to reappear sporadically with unsolicited commercial messages and a bunch of unsolicited "experimental" file uploading. My last "weekly" digest contained 6 weeks worth of messages (minus the ones I submitted) and an enormous amount of unnecessary, useless code. I'm ready to join the recent wave of "unsubscribers." Many of us would like to have the list continue *if* someone can manage it properly. My question is: what is Niles up to, and why can't they get their act together? This is ridiculous. -- Peter Weil Dept. of Political Science University of Wisconsin-Madison plweil@students.wisc.edu
