realy see where the reasoning is do do this, except
to eliminate CC-Talk. After all, the hard disagreement with
a governed CC-Talk was the original reaon for creating CC-Tech.
I believe the reason is that each message to CC-Tech has to be manually
approved. That alone seems like a reason to remerge the two to me.
What are the other reasons, though? I'm sure they've been discussed in the
past on here, I just don't recall them :-)
In theory the idea of two lists seems like a really good one to me - both
groups (those who like the social side, and those who don't) can be kept
happy. The only problem seems to be he workload for moderators, which I can
appreciate must be large. (Well, there's the occasional user who cross-posts
to both lists when they shouldn't, but they seem to be educated by other list
members fairly quickly)
So, other than the workload, what are the other disadvantages (I think what
I'm getting at is: if the moderation workload could be reduced somehow, would
it make sense to keep both lists?)
