That will come later. (Which reminds me we should probably add "beta" to our logo.) From your years of activism you know that new projects should start with specific, attainable goals and grow and expand as circumstances allow. In the meantime, we appreciate your feedback and patience! Ben, there’s no separate forum, user profiles, or messaging – yet. That will come later.

I couldn't find anything like user profiles or any form of messaging ... nothing like discussion of platform items here ... heck, you haven't even posted that the platform was complete! I know critique is sufficient grounds for accusations of dis-loyalty and just plain bad attititude ... I've been a street-level activist since '73 and a web activist since '95, I've seen personality politics at work ... but how is it that such a fine slab of programming is ham strung in this way? (<i>"<b>Ham strung</b>" ... to cripple an animal or an enemy by cutting the ham strings, the huge tendons that run from the knee up into the thigh.</i>) I don’t understand.
