It would be nice, yes, to be able to click on a link that says "order nodes by <foo>", and get the nodes instantly reordered. However, I don't see how to do that without either complicated client-side scripting, which I don't feel like writing, or another server hit, and I'd prefer to minimize them.

Ah, yes, but the current way is difficult enough that it serves as a deterrent from doing it at all. I suspect, then, adding the feature would create more load then it removes, and at the current state of the monestary, I'll take speed over useability.
Oh, BTW, have you seen Monastery NNTP Bridge? It's woefuly incomplete, but looks quite interesting, esp as you've often mentioned that you'd like such a thing. (I /msg'd you too, but you apparently don't read them.)

Yes, that would be excellent. | [reply] |
I assume that this is a continuation of a conversation
that started somewhere else (or maybe its just Friday
afternoon after a difficult week and I am not as sharp as
I should be).
Could someone provide a pointer to help me understand the
context?

When you view a node here,
you get the replies ordered by Oldest-First.
artist is asking for the ability
to sort the replies when viewing them. (I assume)
He who asks will be a fool for five minutes, but he who doesn't ask will remain a fool for life.
