If you're ever feeling really generous, and you want to write something and post |
| 20 |
it to the -project ML and avoid such confusion from the start, you *might* |
| 21 |
want to consider sending it to me, or some other person perhaps, in advance, |
| 22 |
and then we can argue about the details and concepts privately until we work out |
| 23 |
what exactly each other is saying ( even if we disagree on some key element ). |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
That way we don't clutter the mailing list prematurely with everyone going off |
| 26 |
on tangents based on misunderstanding each others misunderstanding. |

I might not be able to be of use in all cases, anything that gets too much |
| 29 |
business speak and abbreviations or lots of layers of social stuff and buzzwords |
| 30 |
and I'm out, but otherwise .... |
