FWIW Mark, I felt that the trimming of the quote by Andreas severely changed the context of what you were saying by trimming it mid sentence. If we look at the complete sentence it is obvious you're saying that the actions of *others* create a risk of splitting the community. Which seems like a valid concern given all of the contention on this. For reference, here is the full sentence... > Otherwise you risk spending time on things nobody will use or worse create a > fork and split the community
