I do have an uploads to sysop feature back now that most of my services are on
my linux machine.. so that maybe one day some inspiring software author may
upload a brand new door that would rival the likes of BRE, LORD, and some of
the other favorites.. would be nice.

 TL> Doing away with uploads is a reasonable policy these days, given that the

 TL> Just worth keeping around a few harder to get files. :)

So very true..
