While I agree that the language in the original posting was, er, strong, I
don't think that you can "simply ignore" the posting of an enormous program
when the rate of throughput on such a group is so low.  I posted GIFConverter
2.0d12 at the request of a bunch of people, and I still haven't seen it.  It's
demoware, which may upset some people, but it is fully functional, except that
it corrupts the image it displays/saves slightly to encourage the payment of
the fee...  I think that the suggestion that I saw before of
comp.binaries.mac.demos was a good idea.
