Some groups are able to self-organize better than others, I have been
hoping the third party theme would self-organize for the last 10
months and while some folks are trying, their numbers don't keep up
with the demand. This group insists that someone else tell them what
to do. It is not a scalable model, it also doesn't inspire anyone
outside of the theme to want to help out with the answering of
questions either.
Just as a data point.
