Couldn't have put it better myself. wa' DoS wIqIpchu'. ('ej ghunchu'wI': website

I also think Voragh's point (which he also made last year when this same issue

arose) is a good one: in the hopefully temporary absence of the New Words List,

having a separate thread for each word will save confusion in the long run.

There've already been over 20 posts about {jul} alone, I notice.

 

Whatever happens, one of us will ensure a summary of all the new words will get

to the list.
