I think you're misinterpreting the term 'professional'. Newby questions about programming are welcomed, embraced, and encouraged. Questions like the one posted this evening here about Powerpoint with JAWS are not.

The only potential issue I have with it is that nonprofessional programmers will be discriminated against because of the professional nature of the other list. The way you guys are making it out to be, it's no nonprofessionals aloud.

I'm a little confused. There seems to be some really strong feelings on merging the two lists. I'm on both lists so don't have a problem with there being two but I also don't see a problem with merging them. It'll save the cross postings and make a bigger pool of people to ask and answer questions. Could someone explain why the strong feelings against the merge. Take the question over the lack of consultation away, That does seem a bit odd in this case, but there seems to be a lot of "old hands" against the move. Thanks. Nick.

This will take place in the next couple of weeks and I will keep everyone up-to-date on what steps will be taking place after consulting with FreeLists management. If you have any questions please let me know. A very sincere thanks goes out to Jamal and George Bell, you guys are the best!
