Except a great many people don't read Brainstorm (I'm still not convinced of its value, despite asking for examples of it working; but won't repeat my critique here) and I know of many people who aren't reading tmo as much any more.

So, apologies for going over old ground. To avoid t further I'll concentrate on my holiday (ah, again; email is easier to follow and reply to in small gaps while tmo requires at least an hour put aside to even skim the threads which *look* interesting) and assume all the points have already been made; that key stakeholders and experts have been involved in the discussion on Brainstorm and Talk and that the purpose of this thread is to point time-short community-focused developers to discussions in the Other Place(s).

I'm not, even assuming that MWN takes off and the threads of interest are highlighted in a timely manner.

Cheers,

Andrew
