A linked item is a hard link, but the item directories are owned by
"cfadm".  No fairwitness could link an item by executing "ln" themselves.
If backtalk and picospan were modified not to prevent fw's in those
conferences from executing the "link" command, it would prevent linked
items.

It would take a modification to picospan and backtalk?  Somehow I 
don't see those two changes as being very likely.

resp:61 pretty much in context with the rest of the horrors there ;)

Very good! Glad to see you get it.

I'd be perfectly willing to make such a change to Backtalk.  Having more
per-conference configurability of user and fw powers is something I want
to do anyway.  I even have some notes on how to do this.

I suspect the chances of changes to Picospan are slimmer.

I was envisioning a way to remove the Unix link command itself.  But 
then, I was envisioning a way to use a separate Unix loginid to own 
the blog files.  I guess that part would be difficult if we didn't 
also use a separate set of Picospan and Backtalk binaries, huh?

Oh, well.  My idea is more involved than I had expected.  It is hereby 
junked at this time, but if the capabilities come together at some 
point in the future, I think it could be worth revisiting.

In general, I support the blog conference.  I think it will be a very 
resource-intensive fw position for someone if it becomes popular, but 
it's worth a try.

Grex has tried very few new ideas in the past, and could benefit from 
some innovation.  I don't think we should be quick to shoot down 
something new.  This blog conference proposal is new, different, and 
outside the normal historical scope of Grex's functions.  Those are 
positives.
