Hmm ... well then, what I meant was ...

OK, where's the abstracted synopsis of all the work that
was done over there?! ;-)

And BTW, except for MakeMicroMusic, metatuning, and
tuning-math, all the other offspring lists have pretty
much been dormant for a couple of months now.

Very true, which is why I don't mention them to newcomers. It has
nothing to do with playing favorites or anything, just sending 'em to
where the action is.

Which also points out that while this list may show 530+ members,
there is a list with 50+ members that has had four msgs in four
weeks. Don't be surprised if there are a lot of 'non-users' here as
well... (thank goodness for the 'live' ones!).

Cheers,
Jon

;-) indeed. You're welcome to attempt one if you wish.

harmonic_entropy may spring back to life at any moment.

And that is just as it should be. I believe, Paul, that you are the
moderator of the list, and you better than anyone know it's purpose
and utilization; anyone who moderates a list knows when it's life is
up, and when to pull the plug. The only harm they have in laying
dormant is merely as a distraction; if a list is really dead, someone
can/should pull the plug. Otherwise, dormancy saves having to start
one up all over again. On the other hand, I don't usually point
people to lists that are sleeping.

What was harmonic_entropy again? :)
