-1 What James said, with the extra note that you wont get any support from me for a scheme that doesnt include a [FRIDAY] tag, or a [BEER] tag, or a [FRIDAY].[BEER] tag, or a [FRIDAY].[BEER].[42], then again I suppose all those discussions might best be summed up with [FRIDAY].[BEER] == [42] ;-> Is it only Tuesday still? <sigh/>
[OT] is pretty well entrenched as a defacto standard already though :-) As for naming this thread "[OT] - [TOPIC] - [VOTE]" Id say it would more appropriately have been entitled "[META] - [TOPIC].[META].[NOMENCLATURE].[PROPOSAL].[VOTE]" or should that be "[META] - [VOTE].[PROPOSAL].[TOPIC].[META].[NOMENCLATURE]". Garrrgh! <!--Ye gods! Id hate to see what a subject line for even a basic on-topic thread would look like: "[URGENT].[HELP].[GD].[VIEW].[JSP].[I18N].[T-BE]"... How should I nest tags to internationalise an attribute for another tag?"... (otoh it might make it easier to implement a listbot to answer those kinds of questions (hehe)) --> -----Original Message----- From: James Mitchell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, 5 August 2003 18:21 To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: RE: [OT] - [TOPIC] - [VOTE] -1 We tried this a long time ago. Fact is, it would be impossible to categorize discussions by any label. Especially when you consider how topics can vary from one area to another or could be a mix of more than a few that you listed. Your best bet is to just go through what you can and delete the rest. There is a massive amount of knowledge transfer being spread among the threads here (and other lists), so it is up to you to get what you need or save what you might need in the future. I have a technique where I save (what I consider) important discussions in subfolders within my mail client. That makes for quicker searches among relevant messages. -- James Mitchell Software Engineer / Struts Evangelist http://www.struts-atlanta.org 770-822-3359 AIM:jmitchtx > -----Original Message----- > From: Puneet Agarwal [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, August 05, 2003 1:08 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [OT] - [TOPIC] - [VOTE] > > > With growing traffic on this mailing list, it has become difficult to > search for mails to read or not to read. > For better participation in the forum, we can have following norm. > > We can have the Subject of mails prefix any of the following categories. > If all agree we could request ASF people to publish these on the struts > site too. > > By doing so we can apply message filtering rules to sort the mails and > read/answer those that interest you. > I hope this would lead to better participation in the forum. > > [OT] - Off Topic > [FB] - Form Bean > [AF] - Action Form > [RP] - Request Processor > [AS] - ActionServlet > [SC] - Scope Related mails > [GE] - General Error > [DG] - Design Consideration > [PR] - Problem in Struts > [TL] - Tiles > [T-BE] - Bean Tag Library > [T-HT] - HTML Tag Library > [T-NS] - Nested Tag Library > [T-LG] - Logic Tag Library > > etc > > Shall we start voting for this...!!! > > Regards, > Puneet Agarwal > > Tata Consultancy Services, > C-56, Phase - II, NOIDA 201305 (India) > Phone: +91-120-2461001, 2, 7, 8, 9, 12, 13 (Ext. 1031) > FAX : +91-120-246 1521 > > Struts ...
