Because I wanted it to be different, that's why.

Fidonet doesn't allow attachments via routed netmail anyway according to P4, so 
that's why I put it up for email FREQ.

I dunno, it's a list right?  I can't believe the rotten response I've gotten.  
I know that there's more out there.  If I don't get any more response soon, I'm 
just going to drop the whole damn project.

People whine and cry about not getting any callers yet when I try to take time 
out of my life and do something for the community, I don't get jack for 
response from but only a few people.  The only reason why there's 10 boards in 
the list is because I put seven of them in myself (to include mine)!

But I guess I can see what you're saying about the INF format.  I'll convert it 
to a text file because I've already gotten complaints (from other OS/2 sysops, 
mind you) that people can't view the file.

So much for trying something different, eh?

Later,
Sean
