Well, quoting from the above, I personally suspect that much of Tim's
objections come from "...its stripped-down navbar with limitations and
advertising integrated, and [limited] management options as well."
For my own case, I will withdraw from the ring if it doesn't move somewhere
(Lugnet, or wherever) that doesn't involve "advertising integrated". I pay
for advertising-free webspace, and will vote with my dollars to keep it that
way.
YMMV,
James
