I like gopher+ and would be happy to see it alive, although now it is fully supported AFAIK only in the UMN server (undeservedly discontinued) and client (but their support is close to perfect and can be considered a reference implementation). One should notice however that gopher+ is just an extension. It has never been and should not be obligatory, and nothing can prevent from inventing other extensions (provided that support can be added to the clients) in a way similar to web browser extensions. Would be nice if gopher+ could be added as a plugin (library) to the existing clients like Lynx or Overbite. > > I personally haven't used any Gopher+ features, and my current > GopherSpace doesn't use it either.
