in reply to Java vs. Perl from the CB (no CB log included)

Do you think posting a log of CB comments was wrong? Let me know. Thanks.

Yes. I voted the node down for this reason and because I'm sorry, but I really didn't see that much good content in it. I saw a lot of bickering and one important point (restated several times). I didn't think preserving the bickering for posterity was worth getting that one point across.

If you had asked the participants before doing this, then I wouldn't have minded at all.

I think the chatterbox has a different character than nodes in part because it isn't archived and we should keep that different character.

But I also can see value in preserving particularly informative chatter on occasion -- just get permission first. :)
