Don't tell me these are all the "details" you can give us! :-) Surely
you can find some more time to elaborate and answer questions?

Definitely 28th July in the UK - not sure about US.

I've missed a lot of post but I've noticed this when talking about GP3
several times.
WTF is this 'x-no-archive: yes'??????

Having spotted the release date as the 18th of July in a magazine I was
reading, I leapt into my car and sped off towards Electronic Boutiques like
the proverbial moron that I am, only to get there to find that I had read
the release date wrong and was precisely one month early.

That'll teach me to read things more clearly next time. :-)

Why, if you saw the release date as 18th July? Does your time machine only
take you forward 3 weeks and can't manage 5?

Still upset that a year ago I read "MSFF uses more CPU cycles than the
Logitech" as "MSFF uses less CPU cycles than the Logitech". D'oh!

It's a pointer to deja.com to not archive that particular post.

I believe GP3 will be released in the US on August 22.

It's to stop the likes of deja.com from archiving the post.

That's supposed to be something that keeps the archive sites(dejua-news, etc)
from storing the post.  Some people are worried about something they've said
being kept forever.  However, I've also seen people say that it's a wast of
time.  If someone quotes your message, and doesn't put the same 'no-archive'
message in, there's still a permanent record... :)

All the recent posts talk about the GP3 graphics but what about the physics
? Physics maketh the game in racing sims as all GPL fans will tell you. I'm
hoping that the physics will be a big advancement on GP2 which , after
playing GPL , feels too much like an arcade game . However , I've read that
the wet weather implementation makes the cars difficult to drive .

It means that the image was scanned by "Echelon" and the system
decided not to archive it for later 'usage'.
