Another point of view. Isn't Rodeo an adjunct to Revolution? I can take my Rev stack and (in future with greater complexity) the translator will port it to a web-based interface. All the posts I see on the list are headed with Rodeo. They sort into a thread that I can delete or read as I wish. It doesn't bother me in the least that the thread is about Rodeo. It's some of the all-time best Rev people (Jerry, Sarah, et al) leveraging Rev into a new domain. I can't say I fully comprehend it, but I took the jump and signed up to support the potential of the project.
In short, I really don't mind the posts here. They all come in threaded and clearly labeled. Select/delete, or read. My option.
