unsubscribed...

["Andrew C. Oliver" <ac...@apache.org>]

Hi All,

So the news of my unsubscription reached here before I had a chance to 
say it.

wiki development should take place on a public mail list where everyone 
can participate.  I suggest wikidiffs with [PATCH] in the subject.  I 
personally think more effort should go into using the wiki than 
developing it, but I'l lapply patches.

I no longer regard mailing lists with no codebase as a productive use of 
my time.  I detailed that pretty well in my blog.

Basically the amount of discussion as greatly exceeded the amount of 
action which violated my new years' resolution.

Anyhow.  I'm not asking for agreement.  Just telling why.  

Have fun and good luck,

Andy

Oh. I was pleased when i read your New Years' resolution.
I thought, great - Andy is going to talk less, be less
disruptive, and let us all get on with productive work.

Now i see that i was mistaken. You think that the noisy
world is caused by other people.

If you have un-subscribed, then how can you still tell us.

Oh, no! Quick. Is this list subscriber-only postings?

Thanks, we will.
