Add my vote also to those in favour of posting files directly to the net.

I've posted stuff which met, it seems, with much approval.  If the net can
handle the traffic (the only caveat, in my opinion), it's an easy job to delete
mail messages one doesn't need!  Also, it seems that file postings have
been a very useful way of flushing out people who are still on the list,
but don't want to be!

Any other opinions?
