wwp@yahoogroups.com: WWP Digest #490 OUCH! ehut_2000 2005-Oct-07 15:57:00
Hey everyone.

I never posted here  before and signed in a couple of weeks ago as I 
intended to attend this current event but that wont be possible so I 
just keep my mouth shut and watch what other people are talking about 
and doing. It has been a great experience for me, Im a pano noob 
trying to figure out what to do and how and for that, thanks a lot 
for everyone of you. (btw, Ignacio, your bike and climber panos made 
me drool! Got some good laughs looking at that climber!)

So, why I'm sending this msg to the list?

/rant on

Well, last digest I got, #495, was unbeliveable full of garbage for 
it had almost 6K lines!

Some guys replyed the digest they received leaving the full original 
message in. That means each time we had about 1K+ lines just floating 
there, make that 4 times and we have a reader's hell.

That would be ok if it was relevant information or even chat (It was 
really funny to follow the "wonderings" about Ignacio's work last 
nite on Panotools list :) but it was a 166Kb msg  which after some 
edition, to find out what would get out of that if some cleaning was 
done, came up reduced to 47K and 1638 lines of txt (not riping off 
the relevent quoted stuff, just the Digests inside my fatDigest).

 From 6K lines to 1638? 166Kb to 47Kb? Thats a lot... 

/rant off

And now, I will ask you to excuse me for the rant, just like that, as 
my first post in here.

Anxious to see the WWP Energy event online soon, thanks.

Eduardo
