I think that we might be at a point where this should be our first concern. How to lift the tide to all boats in the Moko pool. Management of the community is a great start, since what we currently have would be best described as disarray.
My only concern here is that there seems to be a separation between the developer and the user... that in the community both seem to have there little corner. Maybe I am reading that wrong, but if I am not... I am not too sure that it's something that I would agree with, if only because the current make-up of OpenMoko, Developer and user are one in the same.
