        I think the problem is with the user's client.  I had a terrible
time following this group using it as a mailing list.  There *is* too
much traffic if you're trying to follow it message-by-message,
concept-by-concept.

        On the other hand, if you're used to a forum-based interface,
using the gmane.comp.lang.ruby.rails NNTP interface makes reading this
as a newsgroup easy.  I use gnus, the emacs client, and *that* makes
this list look the way it should: like many conversations in dialogue,
not all of which I have to pay any attention to whatsoever.
