Agreed. I don't believe my statement was politically or otherwise
coloured by any standard. Anyway, it was definitely not my intention
to start a flamewar over the subject!

They take place on Conculture every now and then. Some conculturers
feel they are not given the space they need because of the sometimes
very huge amount of IB-related messages, and would prefer it to move
to a separate group. Usually these discussions die with the implicit
conclusion that the number of people who réally want IB to leave is
fairly small.

The first argument for not joining makes a lot of sense, the second
does not. In fact, there are several IB members who never sent a
single message to Conculture...
