True - officially encouraging and sanctioning small NL mailing lists might just be counterproductive. But then again consider the following: * GNOME (and other distributions) have specialised mailing lists for the L10n subprojects and the decisions arrived at are proposed on to the main list. It might be time consuming but it allows the sub teams to discuss and thrash out issues in peace without the oversight of other community members * Cultural nuances might encourage some folks to be more expressive within like communities than within broader communities. More often than not the uneasiness of coping with expressing ideas to a larger group of folks prevents deserving proposals from being published. Having said the above, don't the individual Language Projects have their own mailing lists ? If the answer to that is yes, then perhaps a loose confederation done through IRC would be better than an official NLP mailing lists. Yet another mailing list is a phenomenon we need to guard against. :Sankarshan -- >From Untruth, lead me to the Truth, >From Darkness, Lead me towards the Light, >From Death, Lead me to Life Eternal. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
