The formation of your community is a BIG DEAL. Not something to
casually sweep under the rug.
Partitioning the community between users and devs makes it very
difficult to establish a large, viable, sustainable community.
If projects arrive at the Incubator with an already-built user

I'm with James on this one. Many good points have been made on this,
but we do have bigger things to worry about.

One point against this is that we have had a long-standing user list,
