Vasi, what should be improved on the website? When you say "sustain a community", I assume you are suggesting we try to have one there. It wasn't built to make a community at the site, I have always wanted others to come to this community and jallist. Jallist now seems to be a bad place for new users of jallib.
I had 1777 sessions per day on the site last month (this google group had 1,131), both according to Google Analytics. I have been doing some small bits of work on it lately. Feel free to assist :) As for the issue of people that don't want to contribute, we can talk about making it easier for them. I don't think the issue is that their code has to be written correctly. What I do think the issues are, is that it is inconvenient to figure out how to use, and to always run jallib.py validate, then if it passes, it's difficult for some to use SVN. Fixing these 2 issues could be done with some code on a website. Anyways, I don't think this issue can be used as an excuse to not assist with keeping development alive, there are may of us still here. Anyways, I think the topic here is to keep jallib "development" alive, not the community. Building the community is another discussion. I am looking forward to our next release, even if the community is low. Jallib needs assistance from us now, not after we fix the community. Matt.
