Define "enterprise" without resorting to some variation of "mo' bettah"
What about best practices in Flex UI coding? Where do those posts go? And who decides what posts go in the "advanced" lists, and what go in the "101" list? Sounds like an invitation for grumpy nerds to flame noobs and scare them away from the community... I'm not suggesting we don't split the list at all, just that we put some serious thought into it first. Definitions of what belongs in what group, and a lot of publicly available information to help people locate the best list for their question. Maybe have some sort of community vote or something; we don't want to fracture the community, there's not *that* many of us yet. Personally I think the problems are at the moment best solved by clever inbox management. -Josh On Tue, Jun 17, 2008 at 11:10 AM, Anatole Tartakovsky < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dear All, > > Flexcoders has huge problem.
