1 definition found From The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003) [jargon]: rathole [from the English idiom ?down a rathole? for a waste of money or time] A technical subject that is known to be able to absorb infinite amounts of discussion time without more than an infinitesimal probability of arrival at a conclusion or consensus. ?That's a rathole? (or just ?Rathole!?) is considered a pre-emptive bid to change the subject. The difference between ratholes and religious issues is that a holy war cannot be pre-empted in this way. Canonical examples are XML namespaces and open-source licensing.
