Re: LYNX-DEV BLOCKQUOTE and HEADINGS

[David Combs]

This guy Jari Aalto -- I know nothing about whether
his point about blockquote and headings is good or bad --
but I do know something about the guy himself.

He is a MAJOR contributor of software for EMACS -- God 
only knows (well, only God knows) how much time he
puts in on it.  He answers I suppose hundreds of questions
(daily?) on comp.emacs and other emacs newsgroups,
is probably fully occupied with emacs sources -- the same
way some people in this list are with lynx.

Anyway, be nice to the guy -- he is certainly a giver
rather than a taker of free software.
