RE: UKNM: More webwashing

[Bunder, Leslie]

Nah, it seems as though it was working over the weekend and also up to

yesterday.  I refreshed/reloaded on a number of occasions when it was

happening and dejanews.com was showing as it used to be! (Indeed, I

tried it on a number of PCs)


Just a shame it is back to the re-launch!  What I really don't like is

the fact the important thing dejanews was good at eg: newsgroup

searching, seems to be not very focused on the site these days and

instead they've put on all these fancy things!  


A classic case of a Web site that really should go back to its roots if

it wants to keep its users.
