sibling list??Re: Final Draft (?) of WPrgLib --Web Programming for Libraries

[Tom Klingler]

Folks,

I, too, prefer the approach of using Web4Lib for all related subjects, from
policy to technical, and using the idea of subject "flag" words (meta-data,
if you will) in the subject line of messages.

But, if we must create another list, a sibling to Web4Lib, can we please
name it so it sounds/looks like a sibling?  I dread starting an avalanche
of name-debate-mail, but can we call it Prog4Lib, or something like that?!
WebProg4Lib ?!    WebP4Lib?  ........
