That puts me in pretty good standing since you know I read it ;) .. need to work on contributing more but want to keep the S/N to a minimum. “One of the biggest disconnects for me is the fact that almost no one I know in the Railsverse reads ruby-talk regularly.”

That puts me in pretty good standing since you know I read it ;)

I'm making do with GMail and filters right now - when I can't keep up I just archive everything with the "Lists" tag in one shot. But eventually I plan on starting to use GNUS again. It does help to have a client that's able to help you find the threads of interest to you and ignore the ones you could care less about. Eric:

I also have experience the "Ruby can do XYZ" with my responding "didn't everybody know that". I also enjoyed the discussion on ruby-talk for a long while. But as Ruby continues to get more popular the volume on the mailing list got so high that I couldn't keep up with it. The content is good but the volume is just too much to keep up with. Seems to be a common problem on the best newgroups. Wish there was a way to combat that volume in a sensible way.
