My apologies - I wasn't advocating that you had said or implied that the discussions only be about making tools or solving hard problems. Rather that these are typical and laudable efforts by many of the Clojure community that would totally benefit from the kind of discussional focus as you indicated in your initial email. I was attempting to draw a distinction to work specifically targeting end users, such as Overtone, which totally benefits from such opinionated discussion. At least, those opinions can encourage and provide valuable feedback. > In any case, there is no effort to suppress or eradicate underfoot.

I think this focus on respect and consideration is exactly what I had in mind - but I was clearly not able to express it such a succinct and lucid manner :-) Well put.
