Suggestion number one: Allow discussion of competing services. <grin> Seriously, the Amigaforum here is one of the best sources currently available for Amiga info, and CIS has nothing to worry about. Most people wanting information on other networks would probably use both anyway. I realize I'm preaching to the converted on this, but perhaps someone will see it and ponder the future of telecommunication long enough to realize that the industry as a whole would benefit from good relationships between competing services, and that sooner or later there will have to be a single service that will allow connection on a more 'global' basis than is currently available. Can you imagine what would happen if the various telephone companies refused to hook up to each other?
