Hi Horse, Roger and all,

HORSE
<<<<It seems to me that a possible good use of moq_focus would be to
move the moq_discuss summaries here. Most agree that MD
is a lot more dynamic than MF but I think that the summaries may get a
bit lost in the other discussions. Once there has been an
amount of sorting out of the summary of an MD discussion the result
could be moved to a FAQ section of the site.

Comments?>>>>

I'd like to see the summaries ultimately end up as nicely presented
articles on the web site.
Roger's work on the "Overdoing the dynamic" thread is most welcome, but
I think it is still under discussion, and still at the draft stage .
As the discussion dies out and people make some final comments, I hope
Roger will revise the summary and then we can pretty it up and upload it
for posterity.

I still don't see a role for a separate MF mailing list. I think that
the idea of working up a digest/summary of a discussion that has already
happened works better than trying to force a focussed discussion by
prior decree. Furthermore, the original idea of having MF controlled by
a "moderator" smacks of censorship. What Roger has been doing is to be
first a discussion leader and then an editor. I think the final result
is superior. Let's see if this new pattern that has now evolved serves
us well for future discussions.

(In future I hope to have time to share the work involved).
