Hmm..if you have that many people in a team you should have enough money

How different would these tags be from for example Apache's JSSI?
If set up correctly JSSI looks easy enough for a random GUI developer to
understand and include in their templates..
Now you might want to cut down on the amount of sarcasm in messages like
this.. or people might regret spending all their spare-time (hint: free,
no money involved, pas de cashflow) helping out projects which obviously
have money enough to figure easy things like this out easily enough..
