I
stand corrected! It's nice to be wanted by someone other than the police for a
change.
What I
meant by that statement was that you have a team that is focused on AOLserver,
while the community is rather fragmented and unfocused on AOLserver as a whole
-- we aren't organized. We in the community need you at AOL to help bring
the community together so we can coordinate our efforts. The risk I was talking
about regarded allowing decisions about AOLserver architecture to be voted on by
individuals not working at AOL who are not focused on your business needs,
though I'm sure you will benefit from the improvements that come from the
community.

They don't need us, but we do need them, and the
fact that they are now willing to take this risk speaks volumes given
the tone of the past relationship between the AOLserver community and
AOL.
Actually, we very much do need the community! :-) Here's a great example: something like 98% of the AOLserver bug reports come you out there in the community. The continued success of AOLserver is very much dependent on continued community involvement.
Remember, your help completing the documentation will prevent Jim from deleting all of the 4.0 code. ;-) Have a great weekend, and don't forget to get me those core team nominations!
