She commented on the Microsoft-Motorola trial, noting the "presiding juror" that was involved and has reason to favor Microsoft. Shades of the past.

Perhaps some withdrawal from her side as well? I don't blame her. It must be hard not to write about things like that when you spot them, especially after having done it for so long. Besides, she really only said "this is the last Groklaw article", not that the news picks would stop. I took it for granted that she regarded the news picks as a side show that didn't matter much. I am glad to see I was wrong on that, and I am glad to have received a small dose of PJ commentary today.

There are other moderators I believe? And how do Newspicks get up there? I thought there was a queue mechanism. So it's not necessarily PJ doing it.
Could be just another case of "lights out and things just keep going on autopilot"?
Cheers, Wol

Well, it can't be completely on autopilot. The newspicks used to be quite a few a day, and now it's not always everyday you get even one, and this particular one has a PJ comment. Those can't be automated. I still check it everyday, since it's one of my homepages tabs.

It is good to see things are on "simmer" and the pot not left to turn cold and moldy.
I was good to see some news picks still showing up and the latest one with PJ's insightful commentary put a smile on my face.

I expect that the old news picks organization, which I believe was managed by a small group under PJ's direction, was disbanded. It probably relied on email for communications between group members, and we know how PJ felt about that from her last article. PJ herself, however, still has the "keys" to Groklaw, so she can update it whenever she wants. New newspicks show up on a very infrequent basis, usually related to the NSA debacle. This latest newspick was a (welcome) surprise to me, since it wasn't NSA related.

PJ is commenting on the Newspicks. Which is good. She's still involved, and I suspect thinking really hard about what to do. Wayne madhatter.ca
