So why did these separate groups form in the first place?  

What would cause someone to decide to go their own way and not contribute
to an "already established" group?  Are the co-ordinators of these
"already established" groups pig-headed?  Do they refuse to listen when
advise is given?  Or are the people giving the advise pushy and demaning
and thefore go their own way?  

Just wondering, because it seems to me that the only way you can have a
split is if there is disatisfaction with what is already there.

Sorry, I don't mean to stir the pot.  I'm just wondering why this thread
is so long...
