True.

On the other hand, there are long lived lists such as this that can work on
learning.  Always has.  A digital blessing but a real goal of most of the
people I've met that are real XML hackers.  Nature of the technology:  human
negotiated, hardware implemented, hardware independent.  The requirements
for the system determine the makeup of the community that builds it.  Guilds
are ecosystem constructs.

IME, guilds best nations where innovation is the objective.  The humans are
at their best when they self-select.
