That's a bit of a shame. I think they might have got the uptake they were looking for in another year or so. Still, it's not without it's problems, I have to admit.
I'll have to look for a new home for my design and dev notes. The PPG forum is the obvious choice, although I'll miss the indented lists. Probably need a clonemaster subforum if that's doable. I might cast around for some sort of wiki as well.
Oh well, no immediate rush, I suppose...
