Hi,

Now that slrn has re-entered pre-release testing is it a good time to
allow 64 integers for article numbers in the windows slrn by default?
I am running the current svn slrn on windows:

------------------
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.

C:\Documents and Settings\andrew>slrn --version
slrn pre1.0.0-2
        * Note: This version is a developer preview.
S-Lang Library Version: 2.1.4
Compiled at: Nov 27 2008 11:26:58
Operating System: Win32

COMPILE TIME OPTIONS:
 Backends: +nntp -slrnpull +spool
 External programs / libs: -canlock -inews -ssl -uudeview +iconv
 Features: +decoding +emphasized_text +end_of_thread +fake_refs
+gen_msgid
    -grouplens +msgid_cache +piping +rnlock +spoilers -strict_from
 Using 64 bit integers for article numbers.

DEFAULTS:
 Default server object:     nntp
 Default posting mechanism: nntp
------------------

with 64 bit integers enabled but of course the relevant settings are
currently commented out.

All the best,

  Andrew
