@Jeff> Would you say it's been this way since the original dev team (you, Unknown, etc.) left the ship? :P
For a couple of years I just didn't pay any attention so I can't speak to it much really. There were some pretty solid developers in place for a couple of years that kept things going. Any project like this needs dedicated developers. SMF has had a nice share of them but they have been scattered all over the place.

I think it's become just too bloated at the top personally. Things are slowly changing for the better but the key word there is "slowly"....too slow. The fact that it doesn't currently have any dedicated developers mean it may take a long time to get back on it's feet.

SMF is really becoming a mess lately
Becoming? It's been in a state of disarray for a few years now.

Since the SMF devs are obviously unable to do the amount of work they're expected to do
I don't even think there are any right now...

So, are they going to unban Nao so he can participate then?
Well, I am clearly not a team member over there but I can certainly poke around and see what's up. Also, sent you guys a PM.

Baby steps everyone...baby steps. I, personally, would like to see Wedge as a focal point of discussion over there. I can see there are a lot of emotions running high but I'd like to see everyone come together at some point.

Does anyone seriously believe that if we go BSD, or Creative Commons as I've mused about recently, that they will welcome discussion of Wedge with open arms?
I do, yes.

What I think they want to avoid is the back and forth an accusations etc from both sides. You guys know full well that years of poor guidance will take some time reverse.
