Not being used for as many serious high level
discussions...
interesting point. When was foundation-l started? Have all the serious
discussions moved there leaving just the rants here?
No, it's at least as ranty ;-)
wikien-l is an official place to talk English Wikipedia business, as
foundation-l is an official place to talk Foundation business. In both

descend into spiraling threads of death which are best ignored.
