That's a pity - I find email a lot more accessible than the BBS, since
it integrates with the rest of my work environment. Using the BBS is only
possible from home, and requires a standalone comms program so it
isn't easy to include examples or save useful tips. FTP is a good deal
more user-friendly than BBS protocols, too, so it's a shame that the
FTP filebase seems to lag behind.

Perhaps a more automatic gateway could be set up, so that both sorts of
users could benefit equally ? Of course, I'm not suggesting that all the
BBS comments should be echoed to _this_ list, nor that all customer support
should be conducted in public - but I do think that internet-based forms
of communication are a good deal more convenient than a standalone BBS,
even given the convenient access via Compuserve.
