Did anyone but me see this?  Both times I've tried to post to the list
I've seen bizzare bounce messages from someone subscribed from *.sailor.nu.
Aside from seeing it myself, I don't know if the post made it to the
list.

I should add that xawtv works, but without sound.  I have not yet
finished going through the suggestions the FAQ makes about the
relationship between sound and xawtv.
