although I agree with most of what's been said about keeping the s/n ratio
high on this list, I would object to the statement that questions related to
comparisons of ejb products do not belong here (provided they cannot be found
in the archives). what could be a better place to ask? you probably won't find
any other list where you would get a more representative answer from a wide
variety of both ejb-vendors and independent ejb-users. I've enjoyed it and
learned a lot in the past just by sitting back and listen to them exchanging
the arguments. I would also vote for being allowed to ask those "has anyone
used this new server XY. is it any good?" type of questions. I don't think
those questions are what clogs up this list. it's the "what does CMP mean" or
"I cannot get weblogic to serve my bean, here's my stacktrace" or the 100th
occurence of "if I always map a row to an entity bean, doesn't that lead to
bad performance" type of questions, that should be reduced by encouraging
people to use the list archives and read tutorials on ejb before posting.

P.S.: sorry for lowering the s/n ration by one of those "in my opinion what
should be discussed on this list is .." questions, just couldn't help it  ;-)
