Resorting newsgroups isn't yes. before I got stuck here on the end of a ppp link, I was subscribed to several hundred newsgroups. a couple dozen of them were must-read. the rest varied, depending on whatever. (eg, I tended to spend a few weeks with a tasty group found by jump-to-random-group.) once in a while, I'd try to rearrange the list so that currently-interesting groups were near the top, but this was always cumbersome and harder to do than I liked, even when I had keys bound to pushing groups up and down in the list. what I think I really want is a spatialized newsgroup list, so I can have a cluster of spandex-and-rhino-related newsgroups in one corner, the anti-C++ brigade over there, the when-I-need-a-non-sequitur smear in the back. anyway. yah, '(level . score) sounds okay. (except for the level part :) I'd be happy if levels disappared, in favor of something else. like, umm, dunno. something more like topics. mmm. I think I'd like to have multiple group buffers. --
