I like the concept, but my experience of multiple lists for the one group is that posts are constantly made on the 'wrong' list, driving everyone mad, or some of the lists simply aren't used - look at this group. Demand drove the creation of the CMS list, but its traffic is minimal. Having multiple lists also starts lots of flame threads on 'to which list topic X belongs'. Given the number of tech lists with large membership and large traffic, I don't think anyone has solved the problem :( I think the flip side is that a) newbies need to see the 'advanced' stuff to learn by osmosis and b) its really good for gurus to see the newbie questions (and maybe occasionally answer them? Hint, hint people ;)) to keep them grounded. warmly, Lea -- Lea de Groot Elysian Systems - http://elysiansystems.com/ Brisbane, Australia ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
