Hey Chet,
This sounds much the same as our podcast, we used to have a good mix of
news and discussion, but eventually we split the news out to its own
show as we found didn't only liked one or the other, soon we found there
wasn't much happening in Java at the time so that show kinda stopped -
talk about 2.3.4 of this, 1.3.6-stable-rc-4 of that each week kinda gets
boring.
I much like the new Posse with much more coding meat for a change, its
good - like a BBQ.

Since I joined the posse after this particular change, I can only
speculate on why (I could ask the other guys, but it's more fun to
just take a wild guess). I think that it takes a lot of time and
effort to mine for those stories compared to the worth of actually
hearing it on the broadcast. These are simple release headlines that
you can get anywhere; I don't think the posse discussion of them adds
much. Also, we are not focused as much on _Java_ news specifically
because, well, we (meaning the posse and everyone that tunes in) does
so much more in our jobs besides writing code in any single language.
It seems more helpful, and frankly more interesting, to cover
anything relevant in the larger land of software development, without
zeroing in on that one specific area.
