RE: We got a partial lease fill, and botty upvote discussion.
It's tough to get the balance right. You can't force (or shame) people into supporting a community effort, but then it's also not fair on the big contributers to be carrying a bunch of freeloaders.
Sometimes people need to see the tangible benefit before they will support, so I'd suggest keeping it open and generous for a bit longer at least. Once people start seeing 0.43 upvotes they might realise the value in supporting this idea.
But yeh, if this ends up being a handful of core contributers carrying a bunch of freeloaders then I will be one of the first who will start to wind back the support.
I do hope you are correct in this, I do see some more starting to come around and it is a new concept for people that are not also a part of other similar community projects.
We will definitely remain status quo for now, but I do think we may need to take a good hard look at the member list as well.
