Hi Darius,<br><br>I notice in previous emails you have been unhappy with moderated groups and enforced limitations yet you continue to use HTML mail and fill peoples inboxes with useless data.<br>The 20k limit does not hit people very often, but infact saves them from having to download huge files when catching up on threads. Text based email is clearly superior and has worked well for years.<br>
<br>Speaking of limitation, why do you continue to use google groups who have a fixed policy regarding group creation.<br><br>did you get very far regarding your problem regarding group creation limits?<br>Surely in an open discussion forum from a giant such as Google should not be limited to the number of groups you can create?<br>
<br>
One day 200 group limit is in operation.<br>
Tommorrow 100 groups, next week 1 group is allowed.<br>Or better. No-group-discussions.<br><br>For anyone not up to speed, Darius is upset that google groups has a limit on the number he can create, just like the limitations on email size in this mailing list<br>

<br>Darius, there are a great number of people working hard to build the maemo platform and whilst it may not fit exactly with your way of thinking (I am sure you have many original inventive ideas) it may be beneficial for all if you would let us walk the path we are on and see where we end up.<br>
<br>We welcome your input on topics which are relevant and informative and most here are more than willing to help if you have a problem, but please stop blocking the tubes with drivel.<br><br>Gary (lcuk on #maemo)<br><br>

<p><b>Community councils</b> (CCs) are the most local <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statute" title="Statute" target="_blank">statutory</a> representative bodies in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Britain" title="Great Britain" target="_blank">Great Britain</a>.</p>
<p>Community councils in Scotland and Wales are somewhat similar to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_parish" title="Civil parish" target="_blank">parish councils</a> in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/England" title="England" target="_blank">England</a>
(which can also have the style "Community council"). In Scotland, their
only statutory role is to communicate local opinion to larger bodies of
local and central government.</p>
Members are chosen every three or four years. They are elected to represent the entire community council area<br>"<br><br>"<br><p><i>"Community Councils</i></p>
<p>158. Any discussion of this subject has to pay special attention to
the institution of community councils, whose purpose specifically is to
represent local communities. Community councils are unique. They are
statutory, but they are not another tier of local government; they are
not creatures of the council, as area forums or citizens' panels are;
nor are they purely voluntary bodies, as residents' associations and
tenants' associations are. A community can choose not to have a
community council; but if a community council exists the council can
neither dissolve it, as it could dissolve or reorganise its own forums
and panels, nor may it choose to ignore it, as it might ignore a
voluntary association.</p><p>"</p><br><p><br></p><p>"</p><span>Community Councils in England</span>
