There hasn't been much traffic in the robot-board mail-list lately... at
least compared to the "good old days." There are now TOO MANY robot-
related mail-lists:
* BEAM
* Rug Warrior
* TC Robots
* Handy Board
* HERO
* TRP Talk
* etc.
IMHO, that is a problem... we robot enthusiasts are becoming too
fragmented... so each group appears to be small... when in fact,
there are many people interested in robots. This is similar to the
split of the <comp.robotics> newsgroup into <comp.robotics.research>
and <comp.robotics.misc>.
I've considered calling on all robot mail-lists to join
back together.
What does anyone else think? No Flames please.
