Truly saying i used to read every single mail during SFD time and
before. These days i am not able to read because of my own few
reasons and of course these days very few no. of participation is
going on. It surfacely shows that there is no more important
discussion going on (which is totally wrong).About the reply, when i
used to read mail, i used to reply most of the mail.In my case ,
although these things are really interesting for me, even then for
some time there was discontinuity. I was thinking , i am the single
person not active these days. I never thought ki no. of participants
are decreasing so heavily. It should not happen. Friends come on,
lets make our common place of discussion, collaboration and sharing
place more lively and fruitful.
This mailing list is discussing about the technical
problem , social problem and everything. So , i can't blame it as a
only technical or as only non-technical. It is trying to be all in
one. It is good .
Thank you bibek for this thread.This survey can help to make the
comeback of large number of members.
