ok than lets do what you propose
we where at the point to open the pab mail archives for reading to public
and than without "to look back" build up a pabs web working forum and
start to wuild up parctical and useful working system
you was agianst and since than we discuss "around" and "nothing" hepens
do i miss something ?

i understand your aproach and i wellcome it also
but until now we have not done what is needed "to make people join"
means becomming "professional" means "building up a working
infrastructure"
"voluntary" and "chaotic" contributions are not the way a "profesional"
organisation may work wich intends to atrackt some "folowers"
or even more to "lead" a complicaited and importend process
