I still fail to see how including a setup that happens to do the job (ie:
transfer files) using Kermit is a form of sabotage.  It's been tested with
Kermit95, C-Kermit and G-Kermit.  I'm fairly certain that even you have managed
to transfer files using that setup and MS-Kermit (note: This is based on
memory, not fact of any sort)  I'm *positive* that winston Smith... another
MS0Kermit user has manager to transfer files using the Kermit protocol as
included with Synchronet.

I'm still waiting to hear exactly what "$hareWare" Rob is "forcing" sysops to
use.
