Well researched posts cuts down on unnecessary list traffic. The
topic that your last post was leading up to, and what you've
expanded on below, is interesting - but I found that intermediary
step a bit redundant... That said, it's not up to me to police the
list, so I owe you an apology.
I don't consider explaining why I misunderstood something for the
sake of others (who may have thought the same thing) as redundant
since most people on this list (yourself included) frequently
reference the list archives more than any other online Cocoa reference.
Building good information (ie, turning a wrong answer into more
useful information) is a good thing and the attitude that it's just
"unnecessary list traffic" is a bit presumptuous since it doesn't
take other's knowledge and experience into account. It may be
'unnecessary' to you if you fully understand the subject but
definitely helpful to those who don't (or who misunderstand it). I'm
glad my misunderstanding has resulted in an archived correction and
clarification as well as an idea for improvements to the developer
tools.
At any rate, this meta-discussion is definitely off-topic for the
list and I won't comment on it further - just wanted to air my own
opinion on what's "unnecessary".
At least they could give that menu item a default title that
indicates that it will in fact be replaced automatically. That's
something they could do right away without having to change any
code, or risk breaking something.
This is exactly what I was thinking; a "tag" in the project
template would work just fine. The same as the "company" or "author"
tags in the template code files. I think the main menu has been a bit
overlooked, especially if this has been the behavior all along
(whether I knew that or not :-)).
I will file an enhancement request this morning.
