I hear you Nori and I agree.

The last few weeks I've also been struggling to keep on top of
things. My efforts to help with Papercreters have suffered, but I
have to do what I have to do.

It will probably be a couple weeks after New Years before I'm back
able to do much.

This is exactly why we need an active group of several people pulling
together.

Thank goodness for our active moderators. This group would have
screeched to a complete halt without them the last while.

Even when I get back to some partial normalcy I won't be able to
carry the whole Code Project on my back. We will DEFINITELY have to
work together to make it happen. Gotta have people willing to step
up and do things, not just chat about it.

That said. I'm POSITIVE we can make this work. I've even had a
couple verbal offers of funding if we can get organized and generate
the proper paperwork. Papercrete has really begun to get noticed.
This is going to happen, it's just a question of whether or not a big
mega-corporation is going to try to get to it before we do and
squeeze out the little guy. Sadly, there are people that are only
interested in a commercialized path and have no desire to help do-it-
yourselfers.

We come in, ghost around for most of an hour before someone can
figure out what we should discuss. I don't have enough time to spare
right now to make that workable.
