The Heartcall Cafe already has a 'flavor', if I can use that metaphor...it is very much imbued with the character of it's founder/owner and seems to be directed toward current/pop-folk. This is not a bad thing, it is just a direction, and will please many if they even find it. It can certainly provide an alternative to Mudcat in some ways, with the various forums.

I will look in from time to time, but feel no urge to jump in there. I hope they prosper, as there should be a variety of venues for discussing music.
