Of course I wouldn't prefer that, but the choice isn't one or the other. Why
can't we have it so Grex will provide access upon receipt of a token monetary
sum? Why can't we have a group of trusted users who are able to ban any
addresses cdalten might use? Why can't we have a system where people are
actually able to be validated and get access? Why can't there be a shell
that, at the very least, is a lot less restrictive than essentially useless
default?

resp:8 Actually that was talked about and approved at the last board
meeting (token money = access). It just needs to be implemented. That
means me figuring out how to implement it.
The problem with banning addresses is that there are always more. And
for whatever bizarre reason, Chad is very motivated.
We do have a system where people can get validated, but we don't have
enough people doing the actual validation part.
We can relax some the restrictions in resh, but there's a line between
being usefully permissive and becoming a vector for system problems. I
am really not sure where the balance lies, but maybe others have a
better sense of that. What do you suggest we add to it?

I know. He is very motivated. I cant figure out why.
I havent been validating people since the last time he caused trouble. I
can start again if you want. I hate to keep people out but I think as
soon as we start letting people in, it is only a matter of time...

I think we should do validation; he'll get in regardless, no matter what
we do.

Good; I'm glad someone does. I wouldn't know where to begin on the
validation process.

i ahve a fair handle on dong validatisno now ... since cross did such
a good job setting it up. (tnx).
a lot of the ppl are askign for email, which is no longer defaulted into
when after s hell is picked ... pick email client.
the !grex-limits command and !grex-principles may need some massaging?
also,
grex% faq
tail: /cyberspace/docs/grex-faq: No such file or directory
grex%
needs some attntion ...
actually, i thik i oughta go start newuser for myself just to see how
it works not .. and then ask myslef for validation ... etc.
i'll ask a root to kill the account later.

Uh, whoa. Sorry to chime in a little late,
but what kind of new user would actually pay to use Grex?
Even a "token sum". Which I hope would be around $1.
