It is interesting to see the comments to the blog post.  But there has 
not been many "interesting conversations", yet.  There appears to be two 
types of "commentors".  One, those who have very general comments and 
also comments on most of the other blogs in a general way.  They seem to 
have neutral comments, e.g. "it seems interesting".  Or comments for the 
sake of commenting?

Second, are those who seem opposed to the idea and have long post (not 
sure if these long post say much).  But these users "hide" there 
identity, so it is hard to take them serious, was it a drunken rant that 
they were not afraid to post because it had little to no repercussions? 
  Is it worth investing time rebutting their comments?  We have seen on 
this mailing-list a lot of effort can spent with little progress of 
understanding.

I would love to contribute to the conversation, because I agree this 
seems like a good forum to get some interest.  But, I don't know if I 
can invest the time to clearly state my case why I think MyHDL is great 
and explain how my returns from my investment are huge.  I think it will 
drive me crazy not being able to allocate the time and only contribute 
small comments (but this hasn't stopped me in the past, doh).

I look forward to future post and hopefully a following from your 
involvement with the site.  It looks like the first post is generating a 
few comments.

Best Regards,
Chris
