Honestly, no, I don’t think we do. Frederik just isn’t paying attention if he 
thinks that’s all, or even primarily what we are.

To be fair, if your primary view is talk-us, then yes, it could look a lot of 
talk about imports, but that’s because those *require* discussions. We’ve held 
plenty of events here in Portland that never make it to talk-us because they 
don’t need to.

The fact that SotM.us is growing rapidly and that synergistic things like 
Maptime are also exploding gives lie to the idea that there isn’t an active 
community here.

Ignore the haters, we’re doing fine.
