  I know all these things and I know that you can find just 1 man from
  10.000 which is really working on something. That's truth and we
  can't change this from day to day. But, even if these things are not
  so optimistic, there should be "open source" way of working ...

  What I mean with this? You are working on Product specs? That's
  great, thanks for it, but let this know to the community, create an
  Issue, attach your work to it or just write some comments into it
  from time to time. This should be done even if you know that nobody
  will read this Issue ... You can catch the only 1 (from 10.000) via
  this way too ...

  You (as the lead, co-lead) should show the people, that things are
  moving, even if they are moving slowly, but you should show that the
  project is about real work and not about long threads without any
  consequent work.

  These things are discouraging people and we should remove all these
  bad things and open everything as much as possible. I know that it's
  not easy, there is no short time motivation, but for the long run,
  it has long list of benefits and probably more volunteers.

  Thanks for this, I'll resend the link to the czech marketing project
  and we will help you with it.

  But don't call it 'experiment' and do this on regular basis, with
  everything even if you know what's the current status.
