My main concern is with the EXPIRE utility.
YARN displays the date field as its written in news.dat, with 4
digits, so that seems fine. But how will function the purging utility
when we'll go to year 2000?
I thought that Chin would have answered my question.
And since it seems that no further development is given to the
program, I'd rather know immediately if I'm going to get a look at
another reader.
