Hmm, it's probably best if I don't comment on that in public. L-Soft international Inc. started in February 1994 as a desk in a corner of Logika's office (Logika later became the Walter Shelby Group following a trademark conflict with Logica of NY). At that time they had physical access to our machines and everything that was on them. I am not claiming anything at this point, just that they had physical access to our machines and everything that was on them. L-Soft may or may not choose to make other claims at a later date and in a more suitable forum. Setting aside the very special nature of our relationship with this particular company, it looks like the main feature of this new mailing list manager is its web interface. As you know, L-Soft is also moving in that direction. Unfortunately this project got stalled due to growing pains and only about 1/3 of the functions have been implemented to date (archive interface and the search engine we now call CataList). However, the hiring spree finally started paying off about a month ago, and a lot of progress has been made on our agenda recently: database functions for non-VM systems, web interface for list archives with full MIME support (now interfaced to the database functions), spoofed subscription detector, "hands off" bounce management, Macintosh version, "super-list" support, etc. We still have a backlog, but it's melting away. Dave Boyes joined L-Soft two days ago :-), and will be in charge of the web interface project. Dave Hanna is working full-time on a management GUI for NT and we will be announcing a couple of new products this summer for LISTSERV's 10th anniversary. There will be a big celebration with all sorts of interesting things happening, but it's a surprise and the marketing folks will kill me if I so much as drop a hint :-) Eric
