so, i notice not much activity on the test blog or web site. before i try to setup a standalone wiki, perhaps its time to take stock? is there still interest in the project? is the whole thing too technical/geeky and hence a barrier for you? should i publicize this info to a wider audience like LBO and see if there is interest there?if you have been thinking of playing with the software, but are worried that you may mess things up, banish the thought. the whole thing is a testbed, intended exactly for that sort of evaluation. change content, add new stuff, setup your own poll, whatever. and ping me at any time if you have questions. --ravi
I don't want anybody to take this personally, but my experience with pen-l going back 12 years or so is that most subscribers are content to write brief observations on this mailing list but save their more substantive contributions for the print media, especially left-academic journals like Science and Society, RRPE, and Monthly Review. Maybe about 10 years or so ago, Michael Perelman floated the idea of setting up a gopher site (precursor to the WWW) with resources about housing, taxes, etc. written by pen-l'ers. It never went anywhere. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink. -- www.marxmail.org
