That's great if you guys can actually come through and prove that your
up to it hopefully if LL can show that this change of course is for
real some of the really great opensource people, like Nicholaz
Beresford, that have been scared away by LL's previous negligent
attitude towards the patch submitters and open source coding community
will come back.  That's the hope at least.

Q, with all due honesty if you can do it then great, fight the good
fight and all the other cliches and prove that you can do it but
you're going to face a wall of skepticism for awhile  due to LL's
former practices which pissed off and pushed away people who were
actually eager to help you so good luck to you if you really can do it
but don't expect the community to get their hopes up on this at least
until you can show that your team can make results and are a true
change of course.
