Well, I have a couple of responses to this.  First off on the
surface it seems like a quick and easy solution.  But consider
the point of the charters.  Get them if you don't have 'em.

Reviews should not be in software, because what about firmware,
hardware, mindshare and paperware...  That is not what csnsoftware
is about.

As for the dumping of csna.  Well I have quite a few posts to me
that state they read only csna because they want to know what
is new.  So dumping csna and distributing the locations will
only make matters worse, not better.
