Actually, I wonder where the break-even point is for maintaining a separate 'MacPerl on OS 9/Classic" is. At some point in the very near future, if it hasn't happened already, the majority of Macintosh users will be running OS X. MacPerl will still be relevant, as people will be using it from Classic. But it won't be a common experience. Generally the subscribers to the macosx list seem less bothered by off topic posts than the subscribers to the macperl list seem. But that may also change as more of the macperl subscribers move to macosx (or add macosx to their subscriptions). I'm happy to see discussions of Cocoa/CamelBones and other 'toolbox-like' topics take place on this list. Psync, on the other hand, I'm starting to get bored with - no offense to Dan or anyone else intended. That's my opinion. -Jeff Lowrey
