Whether people are using it or not is, in the end, more or less irrelevant,
because this community
is not a public service, it's a body of work shared by some people, and
used by many others.
What is relevant if there is people willing to maintain it and push for it,
instead of simply
using it. That's the missing link here, without maintainers there is just a
pile of code sitting there, slowly
rotting over time.
Those maintainers are typically either those having a direct stake in it
(using it) or those being paid
by the formers to push it forward. So it's not a problem of communication,
it's a problem of resourcing,
those that just take without sharing back with the project eventually are
eventually left out (unless
they are lucky enough to find someone else pushing in the same direction
they want/need).
