You're bifurcating, again. EITHER advocate OR build cool tools, with the assumption that they are mutually exclusive, that doing one must neccessarily exclude the other. There's a concept in game theory called "win-win" that seems to be eluding you. If everyone does what they think is cool, whether it be scripting, testing, documenting, training, or <gasp> advocacy, then everyone in the community wins. _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [email protected] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
