C&C UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM C&C UNTO YOU!

	Excellent idea, Gary. One thing, though, a question to you and
everyone else, about posting that C&C.

	What should be posted to the entire ML, and what should merely be
private? Probably, the "I like it" type of comments should be private,
while the detailed analyses should be sent publically, since others may be
able to add some input, after being prodded a bit by previously given C&C.

	Actually...isn't that what's been done anyways? Eh.

It's a matter of personal judgement, I think. I pretty much do it the
way you've described. I do think that there's a place for "I liked it"
messages on the FFML, though. If you think that a good story is likely
to be overlooked for whatever reason, such a message may get more
people to read it; especially if you tell what it was you liked about
the story.

Sebastian Weinberg sent such a message to the list (accidentally?)
about my first fic. As an unknown on the list at the time, I was quite
happy about it. It got several people asking for copies of the story,
one of whom later sent me some good detailed comments. Thanks,
Sebastian!
