At the risk of resurrecting yet another old
topic, do we really need
both lists?
I think so.
For example,
"Re: Giving away collection of computers"
has turned into discussion and meetings of hams. That would defintitely
not belong on CCTECH, but seems to be a reasonable tangent for CCTALK.
Besides guns, cars, etc., CCTALK has quite a few discussions that are
not really ON-topic, but do seem to involve a fair number of overlaps in
interests between the folk here.
While we don't want to be a support forum for current hardware, there
would seem to be a lot of subjects for which it would be difficult to be
sure about where the line falls as to being on-topic. The presence of
CCTALK reduces the need for rigidity in that enforcement. But, there
are other folk who would prefer a very rigid enforcement.
(Sorry, Jay, I know you already put a lot of
effort in and don't have
time for this :-))
Could we just agree to let Jay make the decisions on such
trivia?
Yes, let the benevolent (guy who should act like) dictator call the
shots...
