So for what it’s worth, it’s not just you.

The debate’s cooled off–but C&I 6:2 (the special issue) still gets downloaded more than any other issue, except for the first two weeks of a new issue. But I’m guessing much of that is for LIS courses–and that the LIS people wouldn’t assign the book. So…I dunno.

I’m thinking of four possible projects, roughly equal in time requirements (I think), and in each case trying to balance effort, value add, impact and remuneration. Not easy. (Of course, depending on how things go with our possible move, it may be months before I decide on any of them–but that leaves more time to make a semi-intelligent decision.)

It offered a coherent perspective on the lively debate of L2.0. But hasn’t that debate cooled off? An update might not make a tempting purchase at upwards of $40 CAD. Just my two cents.
