I see the point in both cases - the name "Revised LISTSERV" comes from the fact that there used to be (before my time :) another LISTSERV (at BITNIC?) that had the right idea, but Eric improved it much more with his new server, so he called it "Revised." So, the _name_ LISTSERV existed before Revised Listserv. Having said that, let me do a complete detour now: Revised LISTSERV is hugely popular, and tons of users are using it, and are USED to its command syntax and behavior. I think it would be a BAD IDEA to make an "almost compatible" server and call it LISTSERV now, it would confuse the hell out of users who are used to sending a SUB, LIST, whatever to a LISTSERV, and seeing it work. Even now, years after the split of R.Listserv and Listearn, we still get mailed which was meant to be sent to the "other" person-in-charge, and it would just get worse if a third one was added - using the same name, and I have been trying to specify LISTEARN whenever possible to reduce the confusion. Just my $.02's worth.. -turgut
