Jared,

I think that’s true. If there is a project and you feel interested to support or work in, gang up and work from that point with occasional updates to the list. Informal structures produce much results.

Defined structures might kill Skunkworks. I find it much more relaxed and easy knowing that I dont have to be elected for anything. Let people interact and if by chance they find something they might require to collaborate on,let them do it at their own discretion with their own micro-structures. The goodwill extended by the moderators and the admins is enough as I see it and when they feel they need to relinquish that role, other people can extend the same will though not in a politically defined modus.

Someone asked who will own(registered owners) the server once it is bought. Personally I did not pledge my few coins to own a piece of the server but to sustain the forum. I would expect the forum to grow into the future,founders' existence not withstanding.

Recently when rules were made tighter,there were lots of hullabaloo, it tells you how much people dont like working within structures.
