I think that IS should support more network applications like
newsreaders, FTP clients, Gopher clients, etc. for Macs & PCs. On the
Mac, I like the following:

	News		Nuntius or Newswatcher
	FTP		Fetch
	Gopher		TurboGopher

In addition, there are some finger/fingerd apps for the Mac as well as
talk/talkd. I don't know if IS should support those, but it might be
nice to mention their existence somewhere.
