I think you guys should keep doing what you do. Different people have
different reasons and motivations for what they do. These do not always line
up well to form a totally free-from-fragmentation community. That we all still
share 9fans is a good way to keep up with the different efforts too

I was with you till the "very easy" part. Been following the updates today
