[ Re: Web 4 special libraries]

[Nick Arnett]

I hesistate to respond to the criticism, but now that there are two
messages, I will.  The birth of Web4SpLib isn't intended to be a splintering
of Web4Lib and I am taken aback at the suggestion.  A growing, healthy
community isn't a static thing; it spawns children and new communities.  The
birth of a child list is a sign of great health, not disease.  Celebrate --
if the child is healthy, it'll be a sign of the parent's great success.  If
it isn't healthy, I'll do the Spartan thing and throw its bits off the
electronic cliff.

P.S.  I'm somewhat amused by the irony of librarians arguing against
subclassification.
