What is the definition of 'user community?'  Would Ladislav rather
hear from me?  I so dearly love talking to misinformed people in the
technical laypress.  Or do I not count because I'm an active
contributor?  I just don't get it. Why is there an arbitrary
preference to hear from people who stand outside the process of moving
the project forward? Who is allowed to speak for the community, the
people who aren't actively involved in setting the direction?    How
is that unbias, let alone informed.

I buy Girl Scout cookies, I guess that makes me perfectly equipped to
wax eloquent unbiasedly in a general manner concerning the
goals,motivations, and structures of the girl scout organization.

point the technical laypress figures out that my content preferences
are worth catering to.  Until then I'll just keep reading penny-arcade
instead."spaleta
