Aye i won't be the ruler of of thine list creation policies, if everyone feels strongly about it then i'll happily put my email addy in the subscript of wherever it may lie. I simply think that consolidating into an area such as CFC which even in OOP theory has lots of relivance would make more sense.
The key issue here is, you kind of want to leveridge people who are subscribed so that if you shoot of a problem, you get answers by some fairly qualified person(s). If you go about the approach to start a new list, then you also run the risk of your population being of limited value and experience. Its kind of like starting an IRC channel, you sit in a popular one and decide hmmm the topic could be more focused, lets create a new channel! so off you go, and do so. Yet people aren't really moving from the previous one are they? sure some folk who are curious will pop in to see whats up and stay awhile but if the overall topics aren't of interest or have no real value to them, they part. CFCDev is an established - well respected - mailing list and i for on enjoy 90% of all topics posted there. Thats my 2c on the subject and its why i chose to make the opinion "lets not fragement our mailing lits for the sake of categories" On Thu, 31 Mar 2005 11:35:37 -0600, Aaron Rouse <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I do not reall see why the CFCDev list could not have both on it, it > is "CFCDev is a listserv for the discussion of all things CFC" after > all which to me means it is not even solely about OO and so on.
