Yes, extremely interesting. And with some of that in mind (particularly the 'core community' bit), should we be thinking of having some way of highlighting/rewarding members of the 'core community'? (It's kinda similar to /.'s way of having those with higher Karma being priviledged to speak a little louder than those without - your posts start off on a higher score) Now we do do a bit of that already with the number of cubes being related to number of articles contributed http://evolt.org/cubes_definition/index.html but I'm wondering if we should be doing more?
