3) More people have stopped ranting and focussed on other ways of
expressing their personal opinions.

Or maybe it's cyclical? I'd wait 1 year before believing that :)

5) Some of the most prolific posters might have moved on to other lists.

I'm still here.

I just use RB less these days and so have less reason to complain. It's still good though, it's just that you need a bit of a sense of how far you can take RB. The problem with RB is it seems so promising, then once your app is almost finished, it turns out your controls are buggy and can't handle large volumes of text, and your app looks amateur :( Now that I know to use RB within it's limits, everything is fine.

I would consider the volume now more in line with what it was before
5.0, after 5.5.5 and before 2005r1.

One last comment. RB users are getting used to RB and are having
fewer difficulties.

Probably.

I remember a time when every other post was about encodings. It was encoding madness for a while.

I guess these days the understanding on encodings has sort of seeped in through the community. Or perhaps people are just getting comfortable with utf-8... (RB's new default encoding).
