I think there was a lot of miscommunication (with thoughts passing like ships in the night) as threads occured on blogs, on PlanetApache, on personal blog comments, on mailing lists. I got defensive at the 'rudeness' of removing something w/o communicating, and now I see it was communicated, it was the right thing to do, and that I goofed w/ Gump. A storm in a tea cup came up over a simple mistake, which was compounded by how this new medium challenged various preconceptions (about where the thread really 'was'.) Perhaps the serendipity is that we've learn that communications channels are changing, simultaneously decentralizing and with peronal "parrellel universes". Lots of simultaneous cross pollinating conversations, w/o too much unwanted cross chatter. It'll take us all a while to see if we can adapt to this, and "virtual threads"... Perhaps the likes of PlanetApache and Technorati (http://www.intertwingly.net/blog/1701.html) are guides, the buddy tapping you on the shoulder in quieter moments saying "hey, you catch what Fred over there said? You'd want to hear that..."? BTW: Remove the Gump link, if you feel it is right to -- or causes folks angst, I won't get funny about it & appreciated the gesture. > I also regard a lot of what we are doing with Planet as an experiment, Yup, and it is a healthy experiment, sorry for the hiccup... > so I expect that we will try a bunch of things and change our minds > (perhaps multiple times).

Amusingly I'd being toying w/ ideas of using Gump's project interdependencies in a social network setting, maybe I just need to listen to those you mention above. It is an interesting space. regards Adam --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
