The Project is ultimately about the users, right? There are early signs that

other systems. And older users are more valuable to project than newer ones.
May be it's time to revert to some of thet Old Good Things, if decade-long
project is mostly ended, while those signs are still early and not a strong
tendency?.. Given this thread, I've mentioned earlier about 12 messages in
announce@ from 2002 with such public calls for volunteers - there are several
years already without these.
Andriy wasn't the one who wrote this. In fact, I'm not sure who the
quote actually came from because I never received the Email it came
from, but I'm under the impression it's from Vadim. My mail spool:
My bad for not checking the included reference.
I was also very much under the impression that that quote was Vadim's,
since it was in completeline with his previous complaints/rants/whining.
And yes, your are smart to stay out of the discussion. But this old fart
just had too much urge to react. So now I'll just go back to my old
lurking state.
