I just don't get this attitude. Why is it necessary to pick up our toys and go
home?
To say, "if you don't do things my way I'm quitting the team"? There are too
many
postings that forswear any solution that doesn't result in a complicated mess of
things.
I don't use forums. I read this mailing list in my spare time, or snatch
moments at work. I find forums time-consuming, and a pain, and I have
better things to do with my time (like working :-)
At the end of the day, all too often I find that the web is a solution
in search of a problem. It's the wrong tool for many jobs, and imho this
is one of those situations.
I rest my case with the fact that other people have pointed out - there
ARE fora out there, including those on u2ug. Why are the fora unused
while the mailing list carries on regardless? I put it to you - the
reason is that most people worth listening to prefer a mailing list.
Cheers,
Wol
