Joe,
I'm still here and happy to have conversations here. The old yahoogroup was very helpful for me a couple decades ago.

Hi, folks. When we had the idea to rescue this group several years ago, I wondered what would happen, even though I had no concrete plan for it. The most I've done so far is lightly promote this group to my TDD training course participants. We seem to be in the grip of the Wiki Death Spiral: nobody writes here because nobody reads here because nobody writes here.
No complaints, no blame, no shade; just facts.
Now that Reddit is dying in a similar way that Twitter has been dying, I wonder whether the time is right for some kind of renaissance here. I think I'd enjoy that. I find the social media landscape too fragmented. The next generation of programmers doesn't have a clear place to get advice from knowledgeable and experienced practitioners. I hope they stumble upon this place. I know that I needed it when I was their age.
I don't have any particular request nor any particular news to share, other than this vague hope. I might even pay more attention to this place myself. :)
Cheers,
