Count me in the camp that appreciates them "full size", and wouldn't mind if they were a bit longer from time to time. The most enjoyable parts for me are when the guys are just talking about java-related stuff they're really interested in, whether this means they're going off on a tangent or not. It's always (I think) more enjoyable to listen to someone talk about something they care about or have an opinion on, and if it doesn't directly fit with a news item or extends the episode a bit, that doesn't bother me. Perhaps if we're looking for volunteers for a technical solution, someone could volunteer to do an AAC version with chapters broken up by topic / new story, so that those who are concerned about the length can skip ahead a bit more easily. Of course, this would only work for players that support this (not mine), but it might be worthwhile for some benevolent soul who has compassion for those who are really concerned about the length. In any event, I'd rather the posse not feel pressured to constrain what they may want to say, since I think that would be detrimental to the quality of the content. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
