Perry, I'm no longer interested in what you have to say. You've been a wet blanket and have pooh-poohed every practical suggestion I've ever seen anyone making - weren't you one of the first people to post to the netphone project telling us we were all wasting our time?
Cypherpunks write code, except when asked not to by Perry Metzger.
Sigh. If trying to avoid re-inventing square wheels and duplicating stuff that has already been done is being a wet blanket, then I have to say I am very proud to join Perry in the "pseudo-tentacle wet blanket club". One of the major reasons I still read this list is so that I can find out when I am wasting my time - if somebody has come up with a workable solution, and it seems likely to gain wide acceptance, it is rather stupid of me to hide in my magical cyberspace fairytale virtualland and write code that no-one is going to pick up and use. But of course I am free to do so, should I so desire... Julf
