Thanks. To be honest, deciding how to organize the language forums has
proved to be the most challenging part of setting the site up, and I
think I'm going to look at reorganizing things again tonight. The
difficulty is to cover the major language categories without offending
anyone or multiplying the number of forums ad infinitum.
If you have any suggestions on organization, let me know. My tendency is
to put Perl, Python, Ruby, etc. in the same forum as they are all
"scripting languages". But some people don't like that designation
either. As Shane said, putting the words Perl and Python together on the
same line of text can make things uncomfortable, but it also seems to go
to far to give them each their own forum.
Maybe I'll put all languages in one forum and divide it out into a dozen
or two sub-forums...
