If there was never any intention of stuff other than PICs (or even EE)=20
being discussed, then why the OT, TECH tags?
It's not like there is too much traffic on here - I personally enjoy the=20
diversity of discussion here. The rules are reasonably clear about=20
politics, religion and stuff, but I have not seen any mention of systems=20
administration being taboo :-)
To be quite honest such discussions also bore me a bit, but I have no=20
problem with them. I view VCS/archiving as a necessary evil so if=20
someone mentions some advice/tool that may make my life a bit easier=20
then I'm all for it. A little similar to e.g. discussions on component=20
storage maybe.
