What a crock! What makes a question asked in 'PerlMonks Discussion' a different "type of discourse" from a question asked in 'Seekers of Perl Wisdom'? Or code posted to 'Snippets', a different "type of discourse" from code posted in 'Code', or code posted to 'Cool uses for Perl'? I suspect that the real problem with adding new sections, lies in the difficulty in modifying the existing codebase and database to accomodate them--and that's a pretty darn good reason--but type of discourse? Phooee! For the purpose I described above, a single, wiki-style node (as used internally for pmdevil discussions amongst others) would more than suffice. And adding new nodes is not impossible as evidence by the relatively recent addition of 'Recent Threads'. Having wiki topics fall off the database after some short period of time would mitigate ongoing impact to the DB, and just doing away with voting completely would remove that concern from the table. But type of discourse is a crock. Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
In reply to Re^2: An OT section (again).
