Hello,
Yes, I fully support UKB in current (Wordpress) shape.
The fact that only few post is connected with the fact
that posting in UKB is seen as more "formal" than unformal e-mail
communication. On the other hand this more formal appearance
has positive side - it increases quality of contributions.
I would always prefer few quality UKB articles than lots of forum/list noise.
Elitetrader for example is forum-based. The amount of "noise" there
is enormous.
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
