This seems to be getting wildly off topic.  Please change the subject
line if you want to change the topic.
Gus makes a good statement of the purpose of the website.

The point of Drupal over static website was to allow a community of
interested though perhaps not fully sophisticated parties to make
updates. A CMS came to the rescue and Drupal was the shiny object that
was selected.

There will be a meeting tomorrow evening where "tuits" will be
available to help channel all this enthusiasm into progress in making
the website more reliable.

I'd love to see demonstrations of this other distributed file system
technology and am happy to participate if a proposal is made.

"Rough consensus and running code"
