Thank you for this project.

Can you please consider the following:-

1. existing formatting of both pages very difficult to print
as browsers do not seem to wrap the text so the landscape format
with mail2news servers along the top cuts off with 2 or 3
omitted.
Is it possible to swap orientations so the exit remailer list
(being shorter) appears along the x-axis and the mail2news server
along the y-axis?

2. Posix lynx does not seem to like the page format (all
formatting lost -- inability to handle frames?) but links
doesn't seem to mind it. Lynx friendly would be nice for
the devotees of ascetism and swift data transfer.

3. The legend gives a key -- cannot reproduce it here but is third
down in the legend and looks like

+
+

-- but while the legend key is there I see no field in which the
anchor it refers to.

4. What does the additional colum "Post" in beta results page
signify? Doesn't the basic list itself indicate the exit remailers
which have successfully posted through the respective mail2news?

TIA

You're welcome.  I'm sorry it doesn't move along more quickly.  If you were
in my shoes you'd understand though.

Possibly, although I've spent quite a bit of time writing the utility which
automatically builds the table and I don't think I'm too keen on rewriting
it.  I'd have to see how drudgerous it would be.  Never thought anybody'd
want to print it.

Hmmm.  I must admit to being absolutely ignorant of Lynx.  I doubt I'd have
the expertise to accomodate in a timely manner, so no promises.

This is true.  The last two in the legend refer to two conditions which I
haven't addressed in the results gathering as yet.  Some time in the near
future.

Post refers to messages which went out with a Post: directive (or
Anon-Post-To: if you prefer) rather than being sent to a mail2news -
letting the exit remailer decide how (if) it gets to Usenet.

The whole project is nearly complete but is missing a pretty big piece.
It's next on my agenda.  I'm looking forward to a time where I can just
walk away from it and let it do its thing.

BTW, betaresults.htm is now defunct. results.htm reflects the most current
(not very) run.

Thanks for your input and interest.
