I think the most effective way of tackling this would be if we could somehow reassure people that the loudest voice isn't going to carry the day in discussions of project technical direction. I think the fear that if one doesn't keep rebutting one's position will be steamrolled is what drives much of the repetitive discussion in those large threads. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
