The Clew meme dates back to 2003, when NYPHP was experimenting with ways to re-implement Mailman as an OO-PHP solution. There's an overview at http://www.nyphp.org/content/presentations/nyphp/, but very little interest remained after that presentation, and we all went on to do other things. The nice thing about using some sort of tree (we called it a nested-set model) for messages is that you get true threading--this is a reply to that--rather than just a flat chronological list of replies. Very often, people just want the flat list as it is easier to follow. -- Chris Snyder http://chxo.com/ _______________________________________________ New York PHP Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk NYPHPCon 2006 Presentations Online http://www.nyphpcon.com Show Your Participation in New York PHP http://www.nyphp.org/show_participation.php
