Maybe I wasn't entirely clear in my message. What we're trying to do is to give you all a say in where to put it. Yes, it is essentially a dictatorship (moderation), but we're also flexible and open-minded. The TB lists are a community, and as such, designed to support the users of TB in the best possible fashion. We could easily make a decision, but we'd like to hear from you all as well. I don't have any problem sticking the "add-ons" discussion on TBTECH, but I don't belive TBDEV is the right place for it. Eventually, I foresee TBDEV getting a lot of programming threads etc. However, there's nothing saying that if we put "add-ons" on TBDEV and later decide that it'd be better somewhere else that we couldn't move it. Right now plugins are dealing with Macros and Anti-SPAM, but I can see it going much further in the future (newsgroups, PIM, regexp generators etc.) Not knowing where it will take us, I'm guessing that at some point down the road, the plugins will be used by everyday users and not just by power-users. Then again, I've been wrong before. Just look at TBLH (TB List Hosters, a list run by TB for people who want to use TB as a list server). I thought it'd have a good deal of traffic. It sees a couple messages a month at most. -- Leif (TB list moderator and fellow end user).
