In fact, I gave it well before describing where it was but I searched the debian-user archive on the web site for the last 6 months and found no hits for "AIMS". I looked back through the articles in the References in this message all the way back to the beginning (or as far as my local archive of this list goes, about 4 days), and there are no references to AIMS (except for the one above). I did a grep on my local mail archive of debian-users and I found one message by you mentioning the name, not three, on another sub-thread, which arrived _after_ I sent my initial message. And, your talk about "first one on the list" clearly predates your first mention of the name; you only mentioned it in a followup to someone else who couldn't find it. Your first reference to the project is here: > On Tue, Aug 22, 2000 at 06:47:49PM -0700, Seth Cohn wrote: >> So go ahead, start a sourceforge project page, and write a damn clone. > > Go look on Sourceforge in the email clients and notice what the first > one /is/. _Then_ you gave the name in a followup to this message. sl> Clearly that is not the case since you couldn't follow simple sl> directions which takes all of 10 seconds to do Perhaps 10 seconds _if_ you're familiar with SourceForge and it's structure. You have to correctly navigate 4 layers of link-filled pages before you get to the right spot, and your oh-so-useful directions of "go look on sourceforge in the email clients" doesn't provide much direction for the uninitiated. sl> nor could you be bothered to read for the name which has been sl> given no less than three times now! See above. The description of the project looks cool. I'll be interested to see it when there's something working. sl> What more do you want?

Or, you could quit being so damn coy and give the name in the first place, then I could type it into the search box on the homepage at SourceForge and find it very easily. Come to think of it, I like the Pamela idea better though. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
