We should indeed care. One thing is that we should do whatever we can to help new projects grow to a selfsustainable size in terms of content and contributors. The second is that we must accept that a lot of new projects will fail, but that this is no reason not to go ahead with even more new projects. If 1 out of 10 new projects survive, then the time spent on the 9 failed projects was not waisted. That one project in some "small language" helps fullfilling the vision of the Foundation as stated on those fundraisingpages I'm just now translating into the small language of Norwegian.
