A good plan - it's very easy to get wrapped up in

of eight months
I've seen a bunch of heavy-duty contributors burn
out and leave
when the fighting overshadows content creation, so I
think we need
to watch out for signs of burnout and encourage each
other to explore
new and different areas that will be re-energizing
to work on.
Not to mention -- that this is free and donated time.
IOW - a hobby. When the rent checks start piling up,
its best to put the vandal-chasing and the article
arguing away for a while.
