[web-devel] Scope of this mailing list / my 2 cents about handling discussion requests

[PR Stanley]

Well, to be fair, very few people bother to scower the archives in 
these situations. I can appreciate that in theory it's a good idea 
but I doubt if it'll ever be practically feasable.
Moreover, if the topic is suitable for the list it will be discussed 
publically anyway. So it is imaterial whether or not the initial 
consultation takes place on the list.
I have already contacted Neil and explained that as far as I'm 
concerned he can go ahead ... etc.
