i've played that particular game before with other projects, and i
understand how long it takes me to do it right. (other people may well
be quicker but prose takes me a long time to write.)

i'm personally not very interested in generating publicity or trying
to grab more users ATM. if other people are interested in this then
cool: submit a patch and i'll gladly review it. if the documentation
on building the site isn't clear, all you have to do is ask.
