[erlang-questions] idea: tagging subject line in this group

There is no tag which fully fits what I read this list for; 'prinicple'.
Discussions on selective receive for keeping state machines manageble, COP,
let it crash, better record data type, static/dynamic typing, why process
dictionary is bad and referential transparency is good and how the principle
apply (or fail) in Erlang.

So my tag proposal is 'principle', but it could also be 'philosophy' or even
'religion':-)

(I would not be surprised if the tagging idea dies out within a few weeks
though. )
