The subject of this list is the open source, which does not include the 
server side.  Discussions of interactions with the server are of course 
in scope.

There is little conflict in the people involved with server side and 
viewer side development, so stopping viewer development would do little 
to change server problem resolution even if that is where the problem is.

It sounds as though you are experiencing some serious problems, but the 
descriptions above are not nearly complete enough for anyone to 
determine what the real problems are, much less determine who could best 
solve them.
