Subject: RWN and the split


Clemens asked me to forward this to the list:


   MetaRWN
          Holden and I have been discussing the role and shape of RWN
          should the great list splitting come to pass. Both of us have
          enjoyed working on this weekly mailing. I've certainly learned
          a lot about the community as well. But we're really not sure
          where things should go from here. We've come up with a couple
          of ideas, but before we spill the beans, we'd be interested in
          hearing what you think. Will RWN still provide value in the
          split list world? Are there ways to make it better? What kinds
          of things should we cover?

          Please, take a moment and let us know what you think.

   i have to say that ruby-weekly-news is very valuable to me and i'd'
   hate to see it disappear.  if somebody is willing to do the
   editorial work on another (announcements-)list, i'd just subscribe
   to that one, but i'm really happy with RWN as it is.

   from the size and coverage of it, to me it's simply perfect.
