Nope. The job of the editor is to publish articles / news that others provide in Fidonews. As this is not happening or only very occasionally (once in a year?) the echo is now kind of the FSX_GEN of Fidonet, only much more stupid. Like Björn wrote:

"Since the advent of most article contributors leaving, this echo now has an "anything goes" policy, just to keep it alive.
Feel free to make some contributions, to put the echo back on track. If you don't, you have no right to complain."

If Björn is a total dick, how would you call the people who reply with "Go fuck yourself you swedish meatball" or an ASCII art of 🖕 (middle finger)?
