I think that you are raising an orthogonal issue. You are talking about wanting to be able to keep up with the ASF more easily and effectively. I don't disagree with you, but I don't think that it is any easier to locate content on one massive web site with tons of large sub-projects. As we develop better tools to communicate, perhaps it would help to have RSS feeds such that you could customize an RSS aggregator to track those feeds that you care about. --- Noel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
