Message-ID: <1993Sep14.130431.21810@sei.cmu.edu> List-Id: I've been reading this newsgroup for myself and in the company's interest since at least 1988. When I see something calling for a response, I generally reply (usually by private correspondence), or escalate it to the attention of management. While this isn't an "official" role, it's generally worked. I imagince other vendors have employees lurking in the background as well. - Ed Falis, Alsys
