If you want to change something in snownews or have something new added, please
contact me first about it. Please don't just go ahead, start hacking things and
send me a patch. I usually have my own ideas about how things should work and
sometimes after discussing things first, a better solution can be found. 
Suggestions and ideas are always welcome of course.

If you want to send a patch, please read the following guidelines:

1) Do not send uncommented stuff. And no, just putting "the following function
   does" in front of function declarations is not sufficient. Explain what the
   code you're writing is supposed to do.
2) Do not send me "optimization" patches that replace code using C library calls
   with some weird pointer constructs, because it is "generally faster than
   using the C library". If you notice a serious slowdown due to a braindead
   programming error (like calling the refresh() function inside a while loop
   for example) then tell me.
3) Please stick to the coding style.
4) Please don't try to fix stuff that is not broken. See 2).
5) I'm not using autoconf.
6) I won't replace netio.c for now.
