It doesn't seem that my opinion matters (removal of syncer entry and
no re-adding of it on my request). I'm thinking about removing my
email address from the ideas page (first I want to send a private mail
to Robert asking him if there are other reasons for the removal which
where not made public).
Apart from that:
- the wiki doesn't seem to be able to provide what Murray is
interested in
- I like Murrays idea
- I don't care where the ideas page is located (static/wiki/...),
as long as we have something to present to people which
want to contribute
Bye,
Alexander.
