I think we agree on a lot of things.
I also think Ward's project is not fundamentally bad just because it uses JavaScript.
I think the idea of federated text sharing through free software and open protocols is lovely and that anyone making a serious attempt at this should be encouraged.
And I think that interactive web software can actually help, especially when it comes to inviting people who wouldn't enjoy setting up a Usenet client.
