Posters to either of the moderated mac groups (binaries and sources) 
should be aware that there is a lengthy backlog (measurable in months)...
the moderator either finds himself somewhat (and understandably)
overwhelmed, or he enforces  (for reasons unknown) a delay policy. Only
important Virus information,  Apple technical information, and patches
to major commercial software packages make it through with any rapidity.

Maybe if people posting to comp.mac.sources would put "SOURCES" in their
subject line, he could modify his mail-handler (which I assume is auto-
mated to some degree) to put sources through more quickly.  In that this
is a low-to-zero-volume group, and in that its postings frequently relate
to discussions in comp.sys.mac or comp.sys.mac.programmer, the three- to 
four- month delay is much more keenly felt than in mac.binaries (which
provides us with a relatively steady stream of goodies).
