Most of the Conversanteers have picked up on the fact that Conversant has largely been ignored by the very person they would have expected to pay it some attention. We've had our say but IMO there's little to be gained in wringing our hands any further. Whilst it would have been nice to have had a link from a high-traffic site like Scripting News, Conversant can make its own way in the world.

Unless one of the BigPubs picks up on the anomalous behaviour of the developer that shall remain nameless, I believe the best course of action for the Conversanteers is just to use every opportunity to sing its praises. It'd be rather too negative and lame to hang a publicity campaign on a "it is worthy but it's being ignored" ticket. I can think of someone else - who shall remain nameless - that regularly uses such a tactic and I wouldn't want to emulate that person.

So, no more whining and whinging from me. Time to move on and boost Conversant positively and proactively.

PS There's some deliberate WebBlagging in this post. Can you spot it!? ;-)
