No, there is 32 developers and around 400 people on the mailing list. I
guess that there is probably around 100 people actively using Turbine. Sure,
it isn't as much as WebMacro, but we haven't been around for as long and our
focus hasn't been to gain users like WM's has been. Justin has been pushing
WM on servlet-interest (3000 people) for a long time now. I haven't done any
advertising for Turbine at all. Also, we are not something for everyone. You
have to believe in Turbine to use it and not everyone does yet nor do I
expect them to. Turbine is for a more elite crowd who understand MVC
applications and want to do cutting edge stuff right now. That focus will
change when we have better documentation and the TDK ready for a wider range
of people to use.

Because of the size of the user and developer base? That doesn't make any
sense.
Just a warning: you appear as though you are trying to be argumentative or
throw your points around and I don't appreciate it. Please be direct and
civil or take it to another list or private email.
thanks,
