Good post, Ian. On Sat, 18 Oct 2003, ian tyson wrote:
this list could agree on what is good about it and what is wrong with it and launch a brand new list that would be the continuation of this one. This is not to say there is anything wrong with the newer lists (I wouldn't know) but since most people seem to want to have the original list but accept that it is no longer viable, then we should all agree on mass to change.
I think several people have proposed that we migrate en masse to the new activerecords list. I think that's probably the best solution for now. What I've been objecting to is the way many people have equated the two ideas of moving to a new list and deactivating the old list. They're not the same thing and one doesn't imply the other. Perhaps one day this list will be revitalized, and by staying subscribed to it we'll know if that happens. -- /* Soleil */
