So I've been putting my promised at-least one-half hour per day on  
the FAQ. Slowly but surely I'm  working through the backlog of  
questions and answers folks contributed during the early days of the  
project.

On other fronts, I think I'm subscribed to all the project lists and  
skim them. It occurs to me that along with the monthly status summary  
of each project, it'd be nice if project champions could include a  
few ideas about how to get involved or even how to see the fruits of  
the project. For instance, based on the email in on the App Builder  
list, there's a ton of neat progress going by; it'd be great if  
someone from that project could post to the main list, instructions  
for how to download, install, and run some of the products of that  
project. This might attract new gardeners to contribute to the  
project and will also give us all a sense of some of the progress  
that is being made by different projects.
