That might happen if the volume gets high, but we're a polite bunch and can point that out if it happens. :-) If there's some implementation minutiae that needs a lot of to and fro between just two people then that might go off-list just as it would with any list? > But the non-groff users and workers are uncollected so that they're > hard to see. I'd be happy to see them more. True, but I think all the *troff maintainers are on here so common, compatible, ways forward can be agreed when it's useful. > That's why I think it's not a so easy decision. I'd still say give it a try. Perhaps where it is, say, Plan 9-troff specific, mention that in the subject. We've lost the benefits of Usenet readers like trn, but some of us might have mailer's with `kill' files. :-) Cheers, Ralph.
