No, Len. That was a bunch of whiners who were upset that they weren't being rewarded for being such geniuses. Took their toys and went home. I think I'm looking more for a place where developers can work and share without concern for business $$ or even recognition from the world. No need to take our toys and go home, no need to stop the motor of the world. Heck, I can even read the W3C as the Galt folks, taking their toys behind a veil of secrecy and issuing pronouncements we should all recognize as wisdom and follow. Such geniuses have no need for that collective-responsibility stuff called accountability. Without the openness and sharing - two things Ayn Rand never figured out - there just isn't much point to doing it at all. -- Simon St.Laurent Ring around the content, a pocket full of brackets Errors, errors, all fall down! http://simonstl.com
