Mark> I realise that there are other CSS Q&A lists out there, but this list is Mark> different in the sense that it is really the extension of a group and the Mark> group's meetings.

That's probably what I didn't realise - that the list is an extension of the group. Although I knew it orginated in Australia, I thought it was more of a stand-alone list. Mark> What would you think about a blog & RSS feed for news stuff (or would this Mark> just be "another CSS blog")? Or two lists, one for news and one for Mark> implementation issues? Personally I like lists in that I like the "push" of lists (things come to me) rather than the "pull" of blogs/forums etc (I need to go to them). ================================= Just as a general comment about learning all the "hands-on" stuff, please don't anyone get the impression that I'm against that. We all need to learn and be shown, and I'm continually impressed by the willingness of people on mailing lists to give their time and expertise up for this. It's just that personally, I've learnt most from the other two lists I've mentioned and don't, for me, see the point of belonging to another list that replicates that. And please, don't anyone be put off by Paul's comment on webdesign-L: "the list-mom and most of the members seem to be arrogant elitist techno-fascists who sneer and chide those of us further down the learning curve" It ain't so :) Finally, if the concensus is that mostly people are happy with posting about these sorts of issues (the "how-to" questions), then that's all cool and how a list should develop. But it's good to ask questions like mine from time to time!
