No, no, don't bother kicking and screaming, we're not going to remove the nomination and YOU don't get to vote, because you're not on the team until you become the Lynx expert. Catch-22, see? How many of the following features does Lynx currently support? [ ] HTML 2.0 Forms. [ ] Secure document communication via SSL. [ ] Local server communication via a UNIX-domain socket. And remember, any of them that are not currently implemented fall into your hands, because you are now our Lynx expert, right? ;^) -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"
