The only person I've seen talking about being exclusionary is you.

Again, what do you mean?

I'm not the only person who has expressed a wish that the STC not take over Techwr-l. Others have expressed a wish that a tool vendor not take over the site. I'm at a loss to understand how expressing a preference is exclusionary. I'm even more mystified that I should be called exclusionary after stating that I wasn't.

At any rate, assuming the STC took over the site - which, so far, is purely hypothetical - the only person I would exclude from participation in Techwr-l is myself. That's simply freedom of association.

Actually, I find your accusation ironic, because one of the reasons that several of us have expressed a preference that the STC not take over the list is a belief that the STC tends to exclude opinions that differ from its own.
