A New VF-1 Client                                             11/11/24
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I was quite excited to read that there were some updates to the gopher 
client VF-1 recently![1].  If you don't use VF-1 to browse gopher, you 
should, and you may download and read about it here:

gopher://zaibatsu.circumlunar.space:70/1/~solderpunk/vf-1

I have  0.0.12 installed  and am looking forward to 1.0.0.  I was just 
thinking this morning that software should be stable, it should arrive 
at a  destination, instead of the current status quo of forever  being 
in progress and forever being updated. I like that VF-1 doesn't change 
much, and that is approaching an even more stable place.

Something solderpunk mentioned was that "Any self-respecting  piece of 
Gopher-related software clearly  ought to have a dedicated presence in 
Gopherspace." I certainly  agree. That said,  I have a piece of gopher 
software  that doesn't have a ton of self respect.  It's my DOS client 
"NC Gopher" (Jan  stole the  name, but  I  had  it first... however, I 
doubt Jan ever noticed my DOS  client with its very limited appeal and 
distribution!). I think I  need to get that uploaded on my gopher hole 
here, in case anyone else has  a really old system they want to browse 
well on. It is loosely based on the utility of VF-1.

Thanks for all the fun times solderpunk!
