:Something seems out of sync - I've seen messages by mail, such as Simon's
:solving of the boot2 problem, which went through about 12 hours ago. 
:However, it still hasn't shown up on the news server (or the mail archive,
:since that is pulled from news).  Can someone verify the mail/news
:discrepancy?

:Matt - Related or unrelated to this, you haven't replied to any mail I've
:sent in the last few weeks, so either I'm getting shunned :), or you won't
:see this message, either.

    Testing testing.  I've definitely been replying to your emails.  The last
    email I replied to was on Sep 7th (two in fact).

    I just did a quick check of the news server and it seems to have 
    Sascha's most recent article posted to e.g. the bugs list.   Simon's
    postings are also there.

    If your newsreader is in 'threaded' mode the articles will not necessarily
    be sorted by date and new postings to old threads could wind up far above
    old postings to new threads.  Try putting your newsreader into
    sort-by-date mode.
