(I'm not sure that remops know why the type i stuff in use, since we can't
read the mail.  I frequently have the feeling that 99% of the traffic base
is pings, and 1% are troll-posts to APAS.  :-) )

Having said that, my interest in Mixminion stems from the possibility of
getting nyms working and making them easier to make and use.  It's my hope that
having robust nyms will bring more users in and make the network more useful,
but I have no evidence to bring to light here that would support that hope.
