I reckon that Daniel has hit on many important issues related to community-building. If people are not careful then we are going to lose many of our current developers. > I strongly respect > and admire what you've been doing to push Cocoon 2.2 forward, but you > also have to realize how hard it would be for you to carry the burden > of being the main responsible for such a core part of Cocoon without a > real committment from the community, which I'm not really seeing at > the moment.

Cocoon would have already been soaring if we had polished the system and documented as we went. We could simply cruise higher. We would have retained many of the new people that we had attracted. I get the feeling that our discussions are going to frighten the hell out of our existing community. We have not yet solidified our current offering and now are racing on to the next new thing. So why should they trust us to not repeat that behaviour. We are in danger of being seen as a research project. I too hope that we are evolving not revolving. Thanks Daniel for expressing your concerns. -David
