Well, those who post with "@tag.povray.org" on their addresses might be
TAG members.
My point is that as Chris mentioned in his post, there are people who have
access to pre-beta builds of 3.5 who are neither Team members nor TAG
members, so knowing who is and isn't won't help a bit with your real
concern.

Sure, but my news reader just lists, for example, Warps posts as from
"Warp", I only get to see the @tag.povray.org if I specifically check the
message properties, or someone, with a reader that put's it into 'previous
message' bit, replies to one of his posts...

And my point was that there are people saying things about 3.5 and in
the vast majority of cases there's no easy way to determine how valid what
is being said is - if one could just glance at the .sig and see 'TAG' then
one could assume that what they're saying is probably accurate - as it
stands, unless you know that someone is a TAG or POV-Team member or you go
to the effort of finding out, the only safe thing to do is to take any talk
of 3.5 with a pinch of salt...
BTW, yes, all this is dependant on what news reader one is using and a
better one would list the authors full e-mail address, but, just how many
people are reading these groups in anything other than OE (or another reader
that hides the information) ?

Just kidding ;)

Is this the famous "information hiding" thing which most OO-programming
people talk about? ;)
(I could make a Microsoft joke about that, but I'll reserve those to
povray.off-topic.)

Yeah, that's the kinda thing I was thinking of - just some easy way to
see that what you write carries some weight and that you probably do know
what you're talking about...

Somehow I feel like it would be too much "advertising". Like saying
"Hey! Look everybody! I'm a TAG member and you aren't, he he!".

I think that's a bit too unnoticeable. It would be quite difficult for
people to see it.

Well, apart from the member bit at the end, it's a remarkably monotonous
DNA sequence, coding for 98 consecutive Leucine Amino acids, which makes
no useful protein that I'm aware of :)
Bye for now,

Hmm, yeah, though, would anyone actually think that ?
