Dan, I had in mind the discussion about how people other than RunRev would run RunRev, which it seems to me is pretty far removed from using Rev.

OTOH, perhaps I should have said that this is not the place for <lengthy> discussions of that sort - the recent thread seemed to have pretty much taken over the list, and I've seen other good and useful lists and forums become really useless as a result of such things.

Or perhaps Mr. Sapersteins' recent aggressive trolling has just made me (and maybe others) temporarily over-concerned about the way the list might be going.

In general, I'm all for discussions going in whatever direction they will, and there are many intelligent and interesting people here. It's just that this list has been so effective in it's stated purpose, that it would be a great shame if it became overloaded with discussions of things that we, as Rev users, cannot have much knowledge of or influence over.

There's a balance, I guess, and clearly some of us feel it's been a little wonky, just lately.

I'd not be in favour of splitting the list, myself, and I like your (and others) suggestion of simply using clear subject labels.

As to where the discussion in question should be, I have no idea. Perhaps wherever people have long discussions about how Microsoft and Apple should be run.

Fair enough, Mark. Where should they be, then?

These discussions are quite interesting, but IMHO this is not the
place for them, since they do interfere with the actual utility of
the list.
