&gt; I am somewhat curious, because I know that there are a lot of people on
&gt; the list who just listen but do not post much. I was wondering about
&gt; those people, and what they are interested in seeing on the list.

I used to post quite frequently, but now I just browse (unless something
really catches my attention).  Many of the topics I have interests in
have been brought up already, and - as Mr Lawrence states in his post -
the number of technical posts are definitely declining.

&gt; How many of you are from a Diku background, like me? 

There are a few of us.

&gt; And might be interested in stuff that is codebase specific? How many 
&gt; find that stuff anathema and think it should be avoided at all costs?

It is difficult to define codebase-specific unless the mud in question
is very stock.  I prefer the list to be codebase-independant.

&gt; How many think the list is too theoretical, or feel intimidated by the
&gt; frequent posters and by the volume of past history and discussions that
&gt; seems to be requied knowledge in order to participate?

I just wish we could open a few more technical discussions.  I'd be happy
to discuss aspects of my coding designs, but most of the implementations 
in question have been discussed by various posters already.

KaVir.
