I *totally* disagree with Thomas here.  It is all about writing games for 
the 2600 and I personally welcome contributions written in bB, or any other 
language for that matter.  We will still have 'how do I?' questions, and 
allowing such contributions will encourage more '2600 developers to make 
more games -- and some of them will move onto assembler.  So please let's 
not cut out future programmers from our community just because they're 
learning with another language.
Cheers

PS: for what it is worth, I, too, am pretty much lurking on the list these 
days and don't post any more because I am awaiting an alternative.
