With all of this discussion, and a message I posted earlier, I have to say that this newsgroup is too cluttered. I would actually like to help people solve their c++ problems, but after wading through 50+ messaages a day I don't have time to give more than a perfunctory glance to most of the questions asked.
My employer doesn't pay for me to do this, so the less time I have to spend trawling through messages that don't interest me the more pleased I will be, and the more time I would have to actually help someone.
The ideas presented below - or some close form of them - have my definite vote.
