What this would mean to the netnews community which receives ..binaries
only sporadically is that we would receive less than we already do.  From
seeing the traffic here from sites asking for re-posts of portions of
binaries, it would seem more logical to strengthen, not lessen this form
of communication.  I attribute the losses to the priority that some sites
give comp.sys.mac.binaries, and news in general.  If we keep it small,
we'll get more.  I would like to cast my vote in favor of disallowing
demo programs on comp.sys.mac.binaries.--
