IMHO Drupal is going through some growing pains - Dries pointed this out in Amsterdam when he talked about the phenominal growth of the community. There is a lot of work to be done.
Correct. Bear in mind that there always have been growing pains, and that there always will be growing pains. It's perfectly normal. What matters is how we counter the growing pains. To answer your questions: 1. Download page: we are working on improving the download page. 2. Quantity vs quality: we are working on project ratings. (Check with Boris for the latest details?) 3. Who is this product for? Drupal is for users who want to setup a website _and_ for developers who need a platform. 4. How do things get done around here? Either you do it yourself, or you work on it with others. So we are working on the growing pains -- even though you might not have noticed. -- Dries Buytaert :: http://www.buytaert.net/
