Of course it does matter not to have the stuff duplicated, since it's a
nightmare to keep 2 things in sync, but why should we doing that? I don't
see any reason... We wanted to do that to complement the current site, if
you are going to do that anyway, there is no reason, why we wouldn't put
our efforts to create other useful things...
Anyway, let's stop talking about "you" and "we", we are all "we" :) No
competition, only collaboration. James is working on this application,
which is in pretty good stage (James?), why in the world would you want to
write something else from scratch? James' tool will be able to index jobs,
ISPs, application, modules whatever... So I think that the best idea would
be to join James, and in a joint effort deliver it sooner, influencing on
the way the final set of features... But as always, I might be wrong, so
it's just an idea... I'm very delighted to know that you started to work
on the new site and I'm in no way would try to stop or provide
deconstructing thoughts :)
