Err.. sorry, not following you. :-) Who is using Dreamhost and what has
it got to do with the finger protocol? Werner doesn't seem to be using
Dreamhost for what it's worth.

Anyway, I admit that my comment about the finger protocol is not exactly
on-topic but I was just curious about Werner's assumption that the
protocol would be meaningful to an arbitrary browser. For example, even
though I've got a command line finger client on my system none of my
installed browsers know about it. I'd have to manually add a system
mapping for the finger: protocol (and even then I'd also have to add a
wrapper to open the finger client in a persistent shell so I could see
the results).
