I believe a key difference here is between what people would be willing to do, and what people actually (will) do. For example: - I would be willing to go to a rugby game, but I don't know if any of my friends are going, so I probably won't go - most of my friends who like rugby may be thinking and acting the same way, or - most of my friends would go if they knew rugby, but they haven't discovered it yet. From what I've seen, interesting discussions can be sparkled and facilitated by people who do not seem to have been particularly interested in a subject beforehand, but happened to be around because they shared a broader interest with the community. We seem to have to potential to build momentum and a critical mass for AX and schema discussions here. I propose we continue the discussions wherever they happen to take place. If the intensity doesn't fade out, having invested a fair bit interest people will be more likely to move to a better suited place if asked to. (Just my thoughts, I am by no means a sociology expert.) Johnny _______________________________________________ specs mailing list specs@openid.net http://openid.net/mailman/listinfo/specs
