If you trawl back through the logs of the mailing list you shall see that this discussion comes up time and time again, and always ends in failure. The majority of the lug is indifferent as to whether we move to a forum or not, but there are a few that are quite happy with it as is. Now although the lug has over 450 people, I doubt that there are any more than 50 active participants. Rather than discussing it in the lug, how about we just do it! Lets hold an open table discussion and choose a location and make the decision. If we are all in favour then lets just start a forum in addition to the lug, and post / discuss on both. See where it leads. If we need to contribute money to get the ball rolling then so be it, I have no issue with throwing some cash at it. daN -- _____________________________________________________________ " They that can give up liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
