Title: RE: [flexcoders] Flex Newbies Mail List

Over the weekend I took a look at MSN and Google's Group features (since people complain that search is a big issue with yahoo's groups). I don't mind putting in the work to support a FlexNewbies list, I like the concept, and I know a lot of people feel nervous to posting simple questions to a list as that group matures. But the more I thought about it, I don't think the Flex community is quite there yet. These Flash groups are pretty huge and has the critical mass to support specific contexts. So in my opinion a bit more time is needed before the Flex community grows to a point that you can have the critical mass to support a group for Flex-Newbies, Coldfusion-Flexers, etc... tidbit: FlexCoders is at 1875 members.

FlashNewbie list only seemed to work cause Jesse answered 98% of all inquiries. ;-) -Stace \ -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com YAHOO!
