According to Pismo:

I have posted in the Borland Delphi group(s)that I use GPC and the Delphi command line compiler to write CGIs on Linux and NT that ported with very few mods.

:-) Good news!

Have you considered a GPC newsgroup, and if so do you need somewhere to host it? I'll be putting up a NNTP server to spool local newsgroups for the ISP where my server is hosted and would be able to add a group for GPC.

Can one simply create a new Newsgroup "just like that"? I think that you can do so only for "alt.*" Newsgroups, and for a GNU Pascal Newsgroup the "natural" name would be "comp.lang.pascal.gnu". The host would not be a problem, but doesn't the creation of a new Newsgroup require some voting etc.? It also would be nice to do it like the DJGPP guys and to route the mailing list into the Newsgroup and vice versa. If you can help to solve these problems, it would be highly welcome.

Also if you want to quote anything I've said in email on the GPC-list I had assumed it would probably be forwarded there anyway. I only wrote you directly because my posts had been rejected with that error I sent you recently.

The error message can be ignored; your messages went through to the list members. (I am CCing this e-mail to the list and will probably get the same error message again.)

Thanks a bunch, and I really appreciate your efforts producing GPC.

You are welcome. :-)
