I also didn't upvote the post for the same reasons.

I did add an idea to the thread regarding symbolic ways that people with ideas and itchy fingers could help. It would also be useful to hear back from long-standing community members about how perlmonks has dealt with 'community relations' in the past. I have not gotten a sense, in my brief time here, how vroom feels about the random suggestions and appeals from the masses but I imagine he's become a bit hardened to the "we must do this" tone of a lot of them.
