Yeah, but...

For most folks, who already complain that they see the "News Flash" bulletin
too often, having a list of a lot of files that they're not interested in would
only make their online session less friendly.

After all, the single command:

   BRO/LIB:ALL/AGE:x

would display the new files in every library for "x" days, and can easily be
added to a macro.

To impose mandatory-read thingies on people has been demonstrated time and time
again to be counterproductive.  Believe me.. I've fought that battle a long,
long, long time ago and lost.
