I agree with Ms. Roberts.  I do not have as much technical expertise as
some of the others in the group but I am benefiting from reading those
posts.  It seems that the bulk of the discussion on Web4Lib lately has been
technical rather than policy issues.  Taking technical issues away from the
list would strip the list of much of its discussion.  I would plead for the
list to stay together and employ subject headers.
