Following up a message from Christopher Baker to Trev Roydhouse:
CB>> you don't believe? is that what Opus hinges on now?
TR> What I believe has some bearing on the functionality of Opus in the
TR> future, in just the same way as what I believe has already played some
TR> part in the functionality of Opus to date.
CB> part is good.
TR> As to what I believe:
TR> (1) Be lawful.
TR> (2) Be friendly.
TR> (3) Be socially responsible.
TR> And, of course, what it says on my WOC membership card about trust.
CB> there is nothing contradictory in having a PGP hook in Opus to that
CB> philosophy. and trust has nothing to do with using PGP for routing
CB> or clear-signing since Opus is not FidoNet and cannot control
CB> anything outside its own sphere.
CB> Opus used to be about getting the most out of the technology. has
CB> that changed?
Do I detect an agenda here?
FWIW, I agree with you, Trev (even though I've joined the dark side). :-)
