> I have a request that this become a more focused list, and not > discuss EVERYTHING. Request denied :-) Based not on my fiat (although it correlates well) but on well hammered out precedent. We really really really need a faq item on this and/or directions to newcomers to such faq. Maybe I should write one? OT is intended to be VERY broad. There are limits - THEY are in the faq. Apart from them the OT subject matter is intended to be very broad. If that doesn't suit one's style then facilities are provided for OT to be for you as if it had never existed. > Perhaps it is time to start new _lists_ rather than new _tags_ for > existing lists. It's always that time. People are most welcome to. Some do. Few prosper as this community does. There are many tightly focused lists with far less soul for those who are more comfortable in more cloistered environments. On this list even people like Olin and me are almost tolerated :-) Russell McMahon -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
