Hi Michel,
oops - wasn't aware this was a dog. (I might have forgotten). Naturally until I see a good counter-argument from someone I'll continue to think the current setup is broken.*
Of course.
It looks as if you want to squelch this thread, but it would have been nice to discuss this a little longer. We might have found out more about what the current consensus is (we had 2 for & 2 against); why people find it useful; who's decision it is one way or another; etc.
I didn't want to squelch it, I was just giving you my opinion. You and everyone else are welcome to continue to discuss it and you don't need my consent or permission to do so.
From time to time I see discussions around here which seem well within bounds of reasonable tone and topic, and which interest at least some of the list membership, which "DC" seems to feel it must stamp on.
So I'll take the opportunity to ask: does DC officially frown on eg threads like this one ?
Not at all. Absolutely nothing that I say on this list is the opinion of Digital Creations. -Michel
